The sport of boxing locally and abroad is down for the count following the outbreak of the pandemic COVID-19 better known as the coronavirus.
The Guyana Boxing Association (GBA) on Saturday advised gyms under its affiliation to halt all non-essential activities for the next two weeks.
This is to assist in curbing the spread of the virus. GBA President, Steve Ninvalle dispatched a letter to the head of all gyms calling for the immediate halt to sparring and non-essential activities.
