Statement from Matchroom Boxing:

Following advice from the Government and the BBBoC relating to COVID-19, the Matchroom Boxing event featuring David Avanesyan vs. Josh Kelly at The O2 in London on March 28, has been cancelled.

Fights scheduled to take place on the Avanesyan vs. Kelly show will be merged into future cards, with ticket refunds for March 28 available at the original point of purchase.

The health and safety of the boxers, staff, event contractors and fans involved with our events is the top priority for Matchroom Boxing and we thank everyone for their understanding. We look forward to bringing world class boxing events back to these shores as soon as it is safe to do so.

Our thoughts are with everybody affected by the COVID-19 outbreak at this difficult time.
