Personally, I'd rather try and do something to solve a very real problem, rather than just sitting with my thumbs up my ass fretting about boxers getting brain damaged.
What pie is that? Only about 5% of current active boxers eat well. The rest struggle to get by. Some worse than others. To take another piece of there already shorted purse ain't right and shouldn't be done

See below. You take a percentage of the promotional revenue, and maybe even draw a line below which you do not take a percentage. This would provide the much needed funds, without taxing the guys on the lower end of the totem pole.
