Will the Tokyo 2020 Olympics be cancelled just like the 1940 & 1944 Summer Olympics?

    In this pandemic situation this should be cancelled of course.

    Yes because the Philippines was robbed of the gold medal several times already starting in 1948 London Olympics with Vickie Draves (search her name in Wikipedia), 1964 Tokyo Olympics with Antony Villanueva and Mansueto Velasco in 1996 Olympics. In all those times Philippines were deprived of the gold medal because of racial discrimination and massive cheating and bias judging. The Summer Olympics should be held in the Philippines either from any years of 2032 - 2052.

    Tokyo 2020 is postponed to 2021 as of right now. It's not cancelled, but they will evaluate the situation day by day. This is unfortunate for the athletes because it is difficult to train when there is lots of uncertainty. The athletes will now have to readjust to the situation and switch back into training mode instead of preparing for the Olympic trials which would have been quite soon.

    the Olympics will not be cancelled but postponed to a later date. right now it is planned to begin in 2021 but if the COVID-19 is still really bad then it will be postponed to an even further date.
