    Due to Covid being largely under control in New Zealand, sports here has actual crowds attending.

    Parker vs Fa has a large-arena crowd expected tonight.

    What difference do you think this makes to fighters?

    Im sure they love it, and Im delighted to see it.

    Although Canelo-Yildrim is going to have a similar sized crowd tomorrow night

    Great to see fans in there it makes it a more exciting watch but it can go different ways for different fighters.
    Either way I'm excited to watch sport again with fans

    12 000 will be the attendance supposedly. Is the Covid situation really well in NZ and other places Down Under?

    Yep - we had a very strict lockdown for 7 weeks at the start

    and then basically got on top of it.

    So life has been virtually back to normal for months now

    I've wondered why they aren't making more fights in NZ since you've had virtually no infections for a good while now but maybe it's not feasible for most promoters and fighters.

    I'll be there as I have said in many other threads already :)

    I'll be rooting for Parker but may the best man win!

    Any idea what time the main event will kick off. The DAZN card kicks off at 130 here in the states and no way I'm getting up to see 4 hours of undercard

    KiA, I thought Parker was gonna bring the POWER? Dude needs to quit after his next decent pay day.

    That poor crowd,, after watching that dreadful hugging match boxing in New Zealand was set back 30 years.
