Considering the tightening of health measures in Quebec [due to a coronavirus resurgence], Eye of the Tiger Management is decided to postpone its boxing show which was set for April 17th at the Videotron Center in Quebec City. More information on the make-up date will be divulged shortly.

 

Since the outbreak of the pandemic more than a year ago, Eye of the Tiger Management has worked hard, in collaboration with Public Health and the Régie des Alcools des Courses et des Jeux, to be able to keep their athletes active and to present quality events to boxing fans.

 

“After facing a number of pitfalls with our protocol to bring back boxing events behind closed doors, we once again find ourselves at a stalemate in trying to integrate international fighters into our April 17th program since the restrictions to which travelers are subject are constantly changing and complex in the face of the evolution of Covid-19 resulting from the new variants. Indeed, despite the fact that we had obtained the authorizations from Public Health for the holding of the event including boxers from outside the country, provided for the work permits, as well as the documentation for their stay and applied the measures put in place by the federal government targeting travelers, they have been refused entry into the country following the current situations in airports around the world”, notes the president of EOTTM, Camille Estephan. "We are extremely disappointed to have to make the tough decision to postpone the event of April 17, but we certainly do not give up," he adds.
