I only wrote about safety in my first comment, because this couldn't possibly be about anything else. Correct ? The ABF already has their time-proven and constantly-improving safety rules. Do not isolate Virginia from the organization.
Boxing is not a wealthy person's sport. Young schoolkids cannot easily travel to New Jersey or New York to fight. Parents are already working hard to pay rent and mortgages; lest have to worry about hotel fees, gas, tolls, and time away from work. Let all of that money stay in Virginia.
Please make the ethically right decision of leaving boxing in the rightful place that it currently is in.
