After discussing this idea with other posters and drawing interest, I am making the official signup thread. People who have already declared interest in the other forum will be given first priority for spots. There will initially be spots for 20 fantasy promoters, and a waitlist. There will be 25 slots.
Rules
Scoring
It would be far too complicated to have a point system so there will not be one. In real life, no promoter has the best boxers by definitive points, but it is easy to say that GBP and Top Rank are better than Star Boxing. Owners can post whatever stats they like to prove they won(PPV buys for fighters, HBO/Showtime fights, World Titles, etc.) Success may be different for different fantasy promoters, one promoter from Britain may care about winning British titles where I could not care about that
Where will it take place?
On an offsite MSN/Yahoo group. Will be easier to have multiple threads there. I will keep a running thread here with the link so owners can be transferred from this site.
Auction
As stated earlier boxers will be signed by auction. Each promoter will be given 10 million dollars to spend in the auction. There will be one auction each year and that is the only time you may sign boxers. Boxers who have announced retirement or have not had a pro fight can not be signed(ex. you can not sign Floyd Mayweather). When Floyd comes out of retirement, he will be available at the auction after this declaration.
Contracts
Boxers may be signed for a maximum of 3 years. All contracts are guaranteed, keep this in mind when bidding.
Max salary: 8 million dollars
RULE: Each promoter must sign AT LEAST 5 boxers, there is no limit to how many boxers a promoter can sign with their 10 million dollars.
The minimum salary for a 3 year deal is $100,000
The minimum salary for a 2 year deal is $50,000
The minimum salary is $10,000
Restricted Free Agency
When a boxers contract is up they become a Restricted Free Agent. Therefore, the original owner has the right to match any offer to keep their boxer. Restricted Free Agency occurs before standard free agency. If owners have no intention to keep their boxer, they can declare that he become a normal FA.
Retirement
When a boxers retires his contract voids. When a boxer comes out of retirement, the owner can either resume his contract or make him an Unrestricted Free Agent. If the boxer's contract was up when he retired, he then becomes an RFA.
How will the auction work?
For the first week, only the world champions will be auctioned off along with a few other declared big market players. After that, owners will be allowed to post any auction thread at any time until all money is spent or all owners declare they are finished.
When will an auction close?
All auctions must last at least 4 days. This will give all owners enough time to notice that a boxer is being auctioned off. Auction ends after no one has placed a higher bid after 24 hours when the 4 day waiting period is over.
Signing up
to sign up declare that you will be playing and give a name for your fantasy promotional company(ex. mine is CEO promotions)
When will it start?
Auctions are set to start Sunday, November 30th. If there is a problem with the date please let me know. You will have 4 days to place any bids so it would need to be with Nov 30 and the 3 days after.
