Boxing is a vicious employer and everything is about right here right now. If they could implement salary slicing such as current fighters, promoters, and trainers giving 5% of their gross to a retirement fund, it would help so many. For that though you would need government intervention as the sport has a lot of greed and would never volunteer for such a venture.
Hey Deanrw , i agree , i think if they give a % of their gross to retirement , they will pay less taxes too .......
