Fans must be vaxxed to attend MSG/Triller fights

Boxing fans will need to be fully vaccinated to attend the August 3 TrillerVerz event in the Hulu Theater at Madison Square Garden and must provide proof upon entry of having received their final dose of the COVID-19 vaccine no later than 14 days before the event date. Exceptions will be made for children under the age of 16, who may provide proof of a negative antigen or PCR COVID-19 test, or full vaccination, and who may only attend with a fully vaccinated adult.

The event will pair professional boxing with a Verzuz rap battle between “Dipset” and “The Lox.”

Topping the boxing action is the previously announced ten-round WBA heavyweight eliminator between Michael ‘The Bounty’ Hunter II, (19-1-1, 3 KOs), and Michael ‘White Delight’ Wilson, (21-1, 10 KOs). Co-featured is former world champion Chris Algieri (24-3, 9 KOs) against Mikkel ‘Slikk Mikk’ LesPierre, (22-2-1, 10 KOs) in a scheduled ten-round welterweight clash.

In a special attraction ten-round clash for the vacant IBF-USBA welterweight title, Eric ‘The Baby-Faced Assassin’ Walker, (20-3, 9 KOs) faces Ivan ‘The Volk’ Golub, (22-2-1, 10 KOs).

Tickets for the DiBella Entertainment-promoted show go on sale Thursday. FITE.TV and TRILLER.co will stream the action live.

    • Yeah, it’s EXACTLY like that. Mandating people attending an event (that is not compulsory at all and is completely up to the individual to attend) to get vaccinations to protect people is EXACTLY like Nazi Germany. You need a serious history lesson. To people who actually lived through the horrors of Nazi, Germany, this is incredibly ignorant and insulting.

      Ya know once upon a time people actually lauded modern science, and it was this collective wisdom that got rid of things like polio, measles, mumps, rubella, etc etc (none of which killed nearly as many as Covid in the USA). This is the first generation in modern times sooooo stupid and ignorant that we cannot eradicate a deadly disease with free and readily available vaccinations. It’s no wonder we’ve seen IQ’s decreasing over the last few decades.

      Don’t bother responding btw, your opinion is like that of a wild animal. It’s just a lot of noise with no significant meaning in human language.

      • Yellow Star for u comrade! Go listen to infowars and maybe your snobbish attitude will improve and u might learn something

        • Yeah the same moron Alex Jones who when getting sued for spreading disinformation uses “hyperbole” as a defense for his insane commentary. That’s who you get your information from? This country is in trouble.

      • Well said many ignorant people on this forum. You don’t want to get vaccinated you always have tv.

        • Gotta love people telling me to get informed by going to INFOWARS haha. You’ve insulted yourselves for me, thanks for saving me the time.

          I mean you have to deal with them basically like you deal with other mentally challenged people. Just kind of dismiss them while feeling very sorry for them. It’s as useless as debating a dog. I’d like to know what it’s like though to be so certain of something and so incredibly wrong. I’d imagine it’s like being last in a race but having the belief that you’re ahead. Unfortunately combat sports are full of really dumb, ignorant folks.

      • You need to seriously get a grip there is no pandemic this is all about control, the most dangerous people right now are those who mindlessly believe everything the Government tells them. They have tried every trick in the book to get people to have this vaccine, we’ve seen celebrity’s, sports icons, any one they think will convince you to have this vaccination we’ve been threatened, and bribed, throw away the mask stand up for your kids or this will never end.

        • Yes sir. Sine people are just top scared and dumbed by the media to realize it’s all a fabrication. Private companies, Like Triller, can discriminate against thinking people, but we know they will rude the wave of the fascist impositions until ree thought is completely eliminated

        • You have no clue on subject matter and with that mentality the Covid-19 deaths may not come to an end. Thankfully the majority of individuals are getting vaccinated

      • Stop the false outrage. It’s GROSS. PEOPLE DONT BY THE $H*T ANYMORE… JUST GET OVER IT

      • 99.9% recovery rate IS NOT DEADLY… YOU REALLY NEED TO STOP! YOU TALK ABOUT IGNORANT AND YOUR FEAR FACTORING IS A HUGE PART OF THE PROBLEM!!! STOP IT!!

    • Its not that serious. Its not like North Korea who was forced to attended a 1980’s wrestling event or be executed. If you haven’t been vaccinated / refused to be vaccinated. Just don’t go to that fight. You get a choice in the matter.

    • You American whine about everything. You get a choice in the matter. If you don’t get vaccine/ or refused you can simply not go and watch on tv. In other places, you have no choice. Stop whining and use your choice. Simply don’t go to this fight. Problem solved.

    • This is what you get when you have a bunch of godless people in control. Mark of the beast is correct.

    • lol its not the mark of the beast. You can still buy and sell things. However, the vaccine might be a “dress rehearsal” for the world to get the mark of the beast in the future.

  • Satanic covid communist go F yourselves and F your globalist new world order.

  • If you make yourselves sheep the wolves will eat you. Benjamin Franklin.

  • Goodness goodness, all you folks are the ones that spread the crap out of this virus. America land of the free and mindless idiots. Not to mention land of the most mindless acts of violence as well. God have mercy on you all. Hahaha

      • Perhaps, let us all know how your experimental stay works out there and hit us back up homie..

    • It’s actually embarrassing to be part of any community that’s this ignorant, and it’s not even a situation where there is even any room for debate. It’s actually extremely disheartening to see collective masses that are painfully dumb and ignorant. We may have passed our peak as a society.

      • Thank God you’re not a scientist. Probably doesn’t believe HIV is real. Tsk tsk homie

  • Trust in God not vaccines unfortunately people die but more from smoking cigarettes than COVID worldwide every day

  • The federal government is not the blame here. States have their own laws, mandates, and regulations in place that protect their own people. That being said, a private business can enforce such rules when that state allows them to do so. Federal and state laws vary so much in many aspects. However, this boxing venue is on private property and not federal property so proof of vaccinations or antibody tests is within state regulations due to the pandemic.

    • I am humored by the thumbs-downs. Apparently, some of ya are not familiar with the differentiation between state and federal laws in relation to public health. I hope my input has helped.

  • They werent gonna sell many tickets as it is. This def wont help get asses in seats. But People like Colby Cali will be happy sitting safely among the fellow sheep.
    This will be the perfect audience to sell off sections of the Brooklyn Bridge. I might show up with contracts in hand.

    • It’s amazing how all these so-called Vaxxed people are so paranoid about their safety. What’s wrong, you don’t trust your own stab much? : )

      • Again, you people prove your stupidity every time you try to communicate. You’re experts at digging your own holes without realizing it. It’s hilarious. Do you understand probability or even basic math? If you did, then you’d realize that vaccine efficacy is dependent on more people getting the vaccine because it’s never 100% effective (like everything else in life). This is why herd immunity is dependent on a minimum number of people getting vaccinated. Being too stupid to understand how the math works doesn’t put you in a position to criticize it, but as someone who does understand how the math works, I can actually prove you wrong with the same certainty that 2+2 =4 (assuming you even knew that).

    • Please don’t ever mention my name. I actually feel like I’m getting dumber just through you mentioning my name. If you’d like to compare IQ’s, GPA’s, etc. I will gladly put my money where my mouth is. I guarantee by any objective measure, you’re stupid.

  • What’s next? The mark of the beast? Will we eventually be forced to get vaccinated? Stand your ground people and stay close to GOD Almighty, Creator of our Universe.

  • Boy, I hear enough complaining about the “nazi” government making us do this or do that. LOL…However, I don’t hear enough complaining about the following that we are mandated to do or we pay consequences:
    1. Pay taxes to the IRS
    2. Crazy traffic laws
    3. Insurance mandates on vehicles
    4. political ATF regulations on firearms
    Feel free to add more…..

    • I’d like to add the Federal de-criminalization of “Mother Nature” needs to be begin ASAP.

    • Scoobs first in line to get a 3rd stab, cause he don’t trust his 1st two anymore. : )

  • As Sgt.Barnes said to O’neil in Platoon: “Everybody got to die sometime”.

  • Show may be empty. Latest Vax rates of NYC (I live here) is supposedly 53%. Among Blacks only 30%, Latinos 40%, Whites 45%, this fight is gonna be empty or look like a whites only crowd (like the few comedy clubs/venues in NYC doing vax only).

    • Well, mainstream media outlets say that the greatest resistors of this experimental jab are the White, Christian, Republican rural denizens. So does that mean that mainstream media is……. not being honest?:-)

      • Yeah like super Dem/liberal NYC would be half Republican, and all the Blacks/Spanish MAGA per MSM’s nonsense.

  • This is INSANITY! NOBODY IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WILL GET A EXPERIMENTAL JAB AND POLUTE THEMSELF WITH GRAPHENE MAGNETIC NANO GEL TO SEE A FIGHT. FURTHER, NOBODY WANTS JABBED INDIVIDUALS SHEDDING SPIKED PROTEINS ON THEM. THANKS BUT NO THANKS

    • Odd you say “magnetic”. I was given the mRNA Moderna vaccine and was in the proximity of an MRI scanner for months and never reacted to it. Hmmm, imagine that! The biggest magnet on the block!

      • ITS YOUR OWN LIFE TO DESTROY, DUDE. NEVER FORGET THAT! BUT DONT COME HERE LOOKING FOR REASSURANCE THAT WON’T COME. YOU CAN TAKE YOUR WIERDO BUDDY COLBY AND SCREW. NOBODY HAS TO GET THAT SHOT… ITS DANGEROUS AF.

  • Not good for an already dying sport that puts on shit cards event after event. Have fun with your empty arena

  • I wonder if Marvin Hagler getting the Vaxx had anything to do with his demise? He still looked fit at his age.

  • I read a few comments from people complaining about needing to be vaccinated. Well it’s actually to the detriment of the card itself. No one is forcing you to attend. The card is mediocre. How many tickets you think will be sold. Protest with you dollars. People equating this to Nazism are ignorant. You are free to not support it.
