Professional boxers in Olympics is a bad idea, say fighters

Well, the good news is that the WBC will impose a two year ban on any of it's champions OR fighters who are in the top 15 if they fight at the Olympics

Top WBC boxers face two-year ban if they fight at Olympics | Anthony Joshua v Dominic Breazeale June 25 | Boxing News & Betting | Sporting Life

THAT'S GREAT NEWS

But I'd go one step further, if I was head honcho at the WBC I'd also ban any fighter from ever fighting for a WBC belt and I would not impose a two year ban, it would be a life time ban for me

It's be good if other sanctioning bodies followed suit, then they'd pretty much kill this crazy idea stone dead.

LOL this is the WBC trying to protect their income. Any of the big names get schooled by an amateur their PPV value goes out the window.
