WBO light heavyweight champion Joe Smith Jr. is looking for a new opponent for his January 15 title defense in Verona, New York, after scheduled challenger Callum Johnson pulled out after contracting Covid-19. Hall of Fame promoter Frank Warren confirmed Johnson’s status to BBC Sport. “It’s a real great shame for Callum,” he said.

He must’ve been vaccinated.
You can still get covid
Of course, the common cold KOs another boxing match. So what else is new?
Cubanovitch,
I have several friends and family members who are deceased due to the “common cold.” If it’s just a cold, then why did they all die over the last 24 months? None of them ever had colds before Covid? Your uneducated anti-reality ignorance is nauseating.
Several friends and family members. Condolences. Somehow we beat the odds as our friends and family members had a flu or just a dry cough. Keep on punching.
Bullshit you don’t die of a cold virus they may have put covid on the death cert to boost covid numbers that why they want you to keep testing. this is a global agenda to control all of us wake up. The PCR test is nonsense they won’t test the police if they did half the police would be quantined, covid is the rebranded cold virus most of us get It’s not the bubonic plague the media have people brainwashed in to believeing this nonsense turn off the TV there is no pandemic.
I have covid right now. At it’s peak, it didn’t feel like any ‘Common cold’ I have ever had. I could barely walk for a day. And I’m only 38! Moron!
I would hope that some you assholes would keep politics out of this boxing forum some of you sound like really sound like idiots
Joe Smith Jnr DO NOT go to the UK -you can only win by KO there-some of the referees are unbelievable homers!!!!!
were doomed. 1,000,000 new US cases monday. 500,000 plus daily. all the sporting events, travel. its going to ravage us.
Just give the government 2 weeks.
To the people who think COVID is a common cold,…. Are you microbiologists? Or or epidemiologists? All scientific researchers of some kind? Or are you just pulling these theories out of your arse?
Lets run, beetches, run and hide like bitches. Grow a pair.
The Jab, the only product in history that has blamed the people who didn’t use it for it’s failure. If you have to be be persuaded reminded, pressured, lied to, coerced, bullied, socially shamed, guilt tripped, threated, punished and criminalized, you can be absolutely certain that whatever is being promoted is not in your best interest.
The reality of the situation should terrify through masses. Yet they keep following along. Ridicule anyone who may suggest that there may be a ulterior motives. I believe it may be a bit how “Noah” felt.
John Kennedy said and I quote
“And there is very grave danger that an announced need for increased will be seized upon by those anxious to expand its meaning…..”
An “existential threat” that requires the surrender of liberty and freedoms in the name of our “safety” and our “own good”. Happened after 9/11
I’m no doctor or microbiologist, but one thing that I do know is that a little ginger, honey, lemon, matcha green tea, elderberry, apple cider vinegar, some exercise, natural sunlight (vitamin D), and a sound mental state go a long way. When they kept us in the house (well some us were smart enough to go out and get some exercise and sun) for a year and the only store that was open was the liquor store, that was a test IMO (Fear is a more powerfull weapon than a gun). My condolences to your family members, but one thing that is for certain is, from the words of Sgt. Barnes, “everybody gotta die sometime, Red”. Do your best to stay healthy mentally and physically.
Hear hear!. Homemade Hydroxychloroquine (Quinine/Zinc) is very easy to make as well.
If Covid didn’t ko him, Joe Smith Jr. would have.
Everything is getting KOd by Covid. Small businesses, livelihoods, home ownership, freedoms, sports and entertainment……….. have to KO and demolish everything in order to “Build Back Better”. Isn’t much different from wanting to build a new house where an older one stands. Will also have too many people with far less opportunity to go around.
