A "Boost" ? How about what they really need , some CASH ? Shame on the British promoters who profit off of the fighters but won't help them out when they need it . Thanks to Ben Shalom for being the only decent human being of the lot so far.

"what’s lacking is regular structural income which would guarantee a home’s future"

is there a joke here, regular structural income & a home

The corruption is real….. Joshua should get a lot of credit for stepping up but these greedy a$$ promoters and the ceos of these corrupted sanctioning bodies should be forced to set aside a substantial amount of money specifically for the fighters who fought under their banners

help the ones who didn't have more than enough and blow it on car's and gold chains. never help the Broner types imo

life is tough, some people make some cash and make bad investments & they lose it or a lot of it, some drink or drug it away, some give it away, some of it gets taken by a female, some slog away for years in boxing at the best of their ability, make the right choices and still struggle through mostly no fault of their own and issues from the sport itself impacting them

This seems like it was done purely to annoy Carl Froch

Doesn't surprise me that J.C. has got involved , he's he good guy through and through. And Josh, ...get in there kid, that name alone will work wonders for a much needed and very long over due facility and after care for these hero's who make our very existence better and more enjoyable .Time for Eddie and frank to step up and hey , Turki , you say you are now the face of boxing ....PROVE IT, your money would provide miracles.
