New expected date of July onwards for Behind Closed Doors released today.
5 fight maximum cards - can’t see many wanting to put on UK shows with 5 fights.
Lot of other Testing/Medical side but looks like a lot of UK fighters going to be very inactive.

Prizefighter is only 7 fights, and only 8 boxers...I’d say that was a format worth looking at again...

It’s who funds it with no ticket sales and only 5 fights allowed initially - plus all testing of officials, judges, corner, fighters etc.....won’t really be viable for most shows.

I was joking mate - on the basis that nobody attends their shows anyway
I have no comment to make on their business model, where their money may come from or where it may go to

Not a fan of PPV's but taking into account what's going on i'd happily pay £10 for a decent card on a regular basis,Maybe some of the big stars will have to take a pay cut
