    you know how you get syndicates of people putting monies into football clubs,could thie work with a group of boxing punters,they have someone appointed to be a promotor however ,what fighters they sign ,who the fighter fights etc can only be done by votes ?

    just an idea ,,,so say you have x amount of people paying 50 quid ( i know it would require a few hundred at least before Rob palmer comes in with his calculations) or something higher and then the promotor gets appinted form that and so on .Then you could sign fighters and put shows on with any profit (after expenses ) going into the company etc

    too much area bias and would be too difficult to pull off

    funny how the only time I made a guess at fighters purses everyone said "its no way there that high" and then a fighter on the show said "you would be suprised most out higher"

    Something like that was mooted on Lights Out (The FX Boxing Program)

    I don't think it would work tbh
