UCLA researchers call for labor protections for California boxers after finding that Latino, Black, and Filipino boxers are repeatedly exploited and preyed upon within their industry.
While boxing is known for its bravado and bloodshed, a research team from UCLA calls attention to protect boxers of color not from punches, but from exploitation.
Researchers Rudy Mondragón and Abel Valenzuela Jr. say their research shows Latino, Black and Filipino boxers are repeatedly exploited and preyed upon within the industry. Their research shows that there is no single governing power or unions that grant labor protections to the fighters. As a result, fighters lack access to health care, a minimum salary and pension or retirement plans.
