While the spread of the new coronavirus continues, it has been decided that the domestic boxing match will be extended until the end of June due to the suspension period.
JBC = Japan Boxing Commission and Japan Professional Boxing Association have decided to cancel and postpone all matches until the end of June, after discussing the response to the spread of the new coronavirus on the 22nd.
