Wach, a Heavyweight veteran with an interesting record, defeated Johnson with the judges’ scores: 98-92, 99-91, and 97-93.

A group of specialists created the WBA safety protocol. The president of the organization, Gilberto Jesús Mendoza, was the driving force behind it.

The idea is that promoters and commissions around the world have a guide on how to perform boxing safely in times of Covid-19. That the protocol is adapted to the measures of local authorities to work hand in hand and bring discipline back.

The WBA sent several kits for everyone involved in the event and provided the necessary support.

The implementation of the protocol will keep on improving to promote the health of the fighters and all those who work in the boxing cards.
