Jake Paul headlined boxing event scheduled for MLS opening weekend at Mercedes-Benz Stadium

Atlanta United is no stranger for being bumped from its stadium for venues having a packed schedule. The team was forced to take an extended break in 2017 when construction opening Mercedes-Benz Stadium was delayed and Bobby Dodd Stadium was unavailable due to it being on the campus of one of the finest research universities in the world. Of course, the team had to play its 2019 home match against Costa Rican powerhouse Herediano in Kennesaw due to Monster Jam.

Once again, the team faces the possibility of being bumped due to another event being hosted at the stadium.
