Professional boxers would get tougher health checks, more medical support at fights, and a federal minimum of $150 per round. The bill also creates a new UBO league model with its own safety, anti-doping, and conflict-of-interest rules.

Who this affects: This bill mainly affects professional boxers first, especially fighters who sign with a UBO and lower-paid fighters who would gain minimum pay and stronger insurance rules. Promoters and UBOs would face the biggest new costs because they would have to pay for more testing, more medical staff, and more coverage. State boxing commissions, tribal boxing authorities, judges, referees, and existing sanctioning groups would also be affected because the bill changes who can regulate fights and who can officiate them.
Why this matters: This bill matters because boxing can cause serious injuries, and it would push the sport toward stricter health and safety rules. It could give fighters, especially lower-paid ones, more protection through minimum pay, match injury insurance, and training injury coverage. At the same time, it could raise costs across the sport and change who holds power if large UBOs become the main path to titles, rankings, and big fights. The final effect would depend on how many groups adopt the UBO model and how state and tribal regulators respond.
