Beterbiev vs.. Meng præsenteres af Top Rank i samarbejde med Groupe Yvon Michel og Gestev, og sendes live på ESPN sammen med en co-feature kamp kl 10 PM ET.

Fanlong, hvem er fra Chifeng, Indre Mongoliet Kina, har mere end bare sit verdensmesterskud i tankerne. Hans hjemland er i det væsentlige lukket på grund af det nylige udbrud af Coronavirus.

"Størstedelen af ​​mit land er blevet lukket i uger." Siger Meng. ”Mine medborgere har brug for noget for at hjælpe dem med at flygte fra denne meget vanskelige tid. Jeg håber at bringe noget positivt, lykke, og glæde for dem med denne kamp. Jeg vil sætte stolthed i deres hjerter. ”

But facing one of boxing’s most dangerous fighters in the ring pales in comparison to the concerns and troubles that are affecting hundreds of millions of Chinese across the globe.

“Fanlong is the best Chinese fighter in the worldeveryone will learn that on March 28th.” Says Meng advisor Tommy Lane. “This is a historic fight because he is the first Chinese boxer to fight for the light heavyweight championship. And with what is going on with coronavirus, this is a fight that can bring joy and positive energy to the people at this challenging time.”

It is unknown when the coronavirus will be under control or when the citizens of the The People’s Republic of China can get back to normal life.

“My country needs me. We will get through this.”
