There is a reason why legends like Mike Tyson supported to changes and amendments happening in the law right now.

They benefit professional boxers.

But old and new fans need to know what is going on.

This sheds more light this week:

Great.

This puts a bit of background to the above as well this week:

Boxers being able to shop around a month before their contract ends with their current promoter is a good thing.

All the above is simply to benefit professional boxers clearly.

Contrary to what some had claimed.

This all happens as well ahead of tonight’s first ever Zuffa Boxing (UFC owned) first professional boxing event with Paramount Plus tonight as part of the start of a multi-billion dollar streaming deal.

For both professional boxing and the UFC (mixed martial arts).

Headliner tonight Callum Walsh of the Ireland faced off with his opponent a short time ago for the final time.
