Due to the growing concerns over COVID-19, Premier Boxing Champions issued a statement on their future. All scheduled events for March and April have been canceled and will be rescheduled for a later date.
At this time there’s no information regarding future shows.
“The health and safety of the boxers, fans and those working the events are of utmost importance to us,” said Tom Brown, President of TGB Promotions and lead promoter for the canceled shows. “We are all disappointed and as we get more information we will address future events.”
Premier Boxing Champions is the boxing brand and brainchild of super advisor Al Haymon.
Through his Haymon Boxing and other ventures, Haymon advises many top-tier boxing champions. His roster includes Errol Spence, Jr., Deontay Wilder, Danny Garcia, Shawn Porter, Keith Thurman and many more.
His biggest client is Floyd Mayweather, Jr., who helped change the boxing landscape with astronomical pay-per-view numbers.
As an advisor-manager, Haymon cannot be a promoter due to the Muhammad Ali Boxing Act which separates the roles. Instead, PBC uses regional promoters like TGB Promotions and DiBella Entertainment as pass-throughs for state legalization.
With many champions under the PBC brand, every day the wait for high caliber boxing events seems further away.
