Boxing promoters have put on hold at least four dates with the New York State Athletic Commission from January to March but have been uncertain about whether they would be able stage the fights, because they are not legally allowed to put them on.The reason is because of new insurance regulations for combat sports in the state that went into effect on Sept. 1, as part of the law that legalized mixed martial arts in New York. When the law was implemented, boxing promoters were left without any available insurance policy to buy to cover the events, leaving the sport dead in New York since the last card took place on Coney Island in Brooklyn on Aug. 21.Promoters canceled several cards through the end of the year, but after months of wrangling and negotiation, a policy will soon be available to promoters enabling them to put on boxing events, albeit at a dramatically higher cost.New Yorks Department of Financial Services, the state agency that worked with the insurance industry, has approved a policy that the United States Fire Insurance Co. is getting set to make available to promoters. It is expected to be in place in time for the first card on the commissions schedule to take place. That is the card co-promoted by DiBella Entertainment and Mayweather Promotions and headlined by the Badou Jack-James DeGale super middleweight title unification bout on Jan. 14 (Showtime) at Barclays Center in Brooklyn.It is our understanding that a combat sports insurance policy has been approved with an insurance carrier [United States Fire Insurance Co.] and will soon be made available to promoters, NYSAC spokesman Laz Benitez told ESPN on Tuesday.When the law legalizing MMA in New York went into effect, it raised the minimum coverage for a boxing card from $10,000 to $50,000 for general medical coverage per fighter on the card, a change most promoters had no issue with and one that conforms to the norm in many other states. But the law also required a new and unprecedented $1 million minimum requirement for each fighter in the event the fighter suffers a life-threatening brain injury, a very rare occurrence.It was difficult to get even one insurance company to enter the market to offer the policy that United States Fire Insurance Co. is about to roll out. Even when the policy becomes available, it is still likely to dramatically reduce the number of boxing cards in New York because of the cost.A source with direct knowledge of the pricing being discussed for the policy told ESPN that a 10-bout card in New York would likely cost in excess of $16,000 but possibly substantially more to meet the minimum standards of the new law.UFC has put on two cards since MMA was legalized in the state, but they were covered by an MMA-only policy issued by AIG.Lou DiBella, founder and owner of DiBella Entertainment, said he was not clear yet on the precise cost of the new policy. He also stated that while he is pleased there will be a policy available to cover major cards in the state, such as the ones that take place at Madison Square Garden and Barclays Center, he is still very upset and concerned about the future of the club cards that are the life blood of the sport in the state.There will be insurance for the Jan. 14 card at Barclays Center, but this is not solving the long-term problem, DiBella said. Its potentially phenomenally expensive. I dont have all the final details, but my understanding of the insurance is that it would be available for the Jan. 14 card and will allow the highest-level fights to take place, but it does nothing to help the club shows or any grassroots New York boxing to take place. This is a temporary fix. Im looking for a permanent fix.DiBella also has March 4 at Barclays Center on hold for the much-anticipated welterweight world title unification fight between Keith Thurman and Danny Garcia.According to the New York commission, there are two other dates on hold for cards in New York so far in 2017: March 17, for a Top Rank card at The Theater at Madison Square Garden that will feature the professional debut of Irish Olympic star Michael Conlan; and March 18, at Madison Square Garden, that K2 Promotions has slotted for the possible Gennady Golovkin-Daniel Jacobs middleweight world title fight.DiBella said those are all big enough shows to absorb the additional cost of the new insurance policy, but his Broadway Boxing club cards in Manhattan and Star Boxing promoter Joe DeGuardias club cards on Long Island at the Paramount in Huntington remain impossible to do at such an inflated cost.This policy will allow the biggest fights to take place, but it does nothing to address the more serious problem of club shows or small regional television cards, DiBella said. Youre not going to see a ShoBox card in New York with this insurance policy. Id say 90 percent of the shows that normally happen in New York wont be possible to take place under this policy because of the cost.Why would a promoter come to New York for that cost when they can go elsewhere for a lot less money?

Marie, Ont., team took control of the game early. MINNEAPOLIS -- The Minnesota Vikings are the last undefeated team left in the NFL, just five weeks into this season.This winning formula has been remarkably simple and consistent. Turnover-free quarterback play by Sam Bradford punctuated by clutch, precision throws. Significant special teams contributions. Relentless defense, unleashed once the Vikings take the lead.Adam Thielen caught a touchdown pass to cap Minnesotas opening drive and finished with a career-high 127 yards as the Vikings overmatched Brock Osweiler and the Houston Texans on their way to a 31-13 victory on Sunday .You want to get fast starts so we can be able to get out there and kind of pin our ears back, said Brian Robison, who had two of the four sacks. Theyre going to want to throw the ball, because theyre down and they need to get back in the game quick.Marcus Sherels returned a punt 79 yards for a score and Cordarelle Patterson caught the other touchdown pass from Bradford, who went 22 for 30 for 271 yards and has yet to lose a fumble or throw an interception.Osweiler finished 19 for 42 for 184 yards, one interception and a late touchdown pass to DeAndre Hopkins. The Texans (3-2) were denied on 12 of 13 third downs, unable or unwilling to do much other than dump off short passes. Lamar Miller only had eight carries for 20 yards during a dud of a performance by the Texans that felt a lot like the 27-0 loss at New England two weeks ago.Give credit where its due. The Vikings are a tremendous football team. Theyre very well coached. They have great players, Osweiler said. It seems like they have their scheme mastered, and theyre a hell of a football team.Here are the top takeaways from the game:FLASHING POTENTIALCordarrelle Patterson disappeared from Minnesotas offense after his rookie season, becoming a one-trick kickoff returner who entered the final year of his contract with an uncertain future.Earning the trust of coach Mike Zimmer and his staff took a while, but through months of diligent work in practice his opportunity has returned. With leading receiver Stefon Diggs sidelined with a groin injury, Patterson had four catches for 39 yards and his first touchdown on offense since Oct. 19, 2014 . In the past two games, Patterson has nine receptions after totaling just four over the 19 games before that.Hes just one of those guys who has energy every day, Bradford said. His smile out there at practice, hes just fun to be around.dddddddddddd I think the guys feed off of it.MISSING MILLERMiller had only eight carries for 20 yards for the Texans before being replaced late by Alfred Blue with the game well out of reach. Miller rushed at least 19 times in each of the first four games, but the 14-0 lead by the Vikings midway through the first quarter made him irrelevant after that.I didnt think running the ball was going to be able to get us back in the game as quickly as we needed to get back in the game, Texans coach Bill OBrien said.Miller ran for 106 yards in his first game after signing a four-year, $26 million contract in the offseason, but hasnt broken 100 since.LINING UPThe Vikings line suffered another injury, as right guard Brandon Fusco left the game with a concussion, putting them down three starters.When we keep getting guys hurt, its always a concern, Zimmer said. Well continue to figure things out.Zac Kerin filled in for Fusco, as the Vikings average just 2.6 yards per rush and Bradford was sacked twice behind struggling left tackle T.J. Clemmings, who whiffed on three blocks that led to tackles for loss.TAKING, NOT DELIVERING, HITSJ.J. Watts absence isnt all thats hurting Houstons defense. The secondary was down three starters: cornerback Kareem Jackson (hamstring), cornerback Johnathan Joseph (concussion) and safety Quintin Demps (calf). Joseph and Demps were hurt in the second quarter. Backup linebacker Brian Peters (quadriceps), who surprisingly handled kickoffs rather than Nick Novak, also departed with an injury.The Texans still managed to hold the Vikings to 222 yards over their final nine possessions, though part of that was the conservative approach with the big lead.Defense is doing a good job, OBrien said. Theyre going to be fine.HOOKED ON A THIELENThielen, who like Sherels was raised in Minnesota and made the team as undrafted rookie after a tryout camp, has become much more than a special teams ace. He caught passes all over the field and finished with a career-high seven catches.Hes kind of the typical Vikings, Zimmer said, guys that just go in and fight.---Online:AP NFL website: http://www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL coverage on Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
