California Professional Boxer Pension Fund

Boxing is one of the most complicated and sometimes unprotected professions, as in many situations the athlete is the most vulnerable and has the least financial security at the time of retirement.

In 1980, the California State Athletic Commission (CSAC) legislature State approved the California Professional Boxer’s Pension Fund, in order to provide support for ex-boxers in the Autumn of their years.

The Fund, which is administered by the California State Athletic Commission, is available to fighters who are at least 50 years old, who fight at least 10 rounds per year in a 4-year period in California, with a break of no more than 3 years and have fought 75 rounds in scheduled fights in California, with a break of no more than 3 years.

Unfortunately, many boxers who really need help are still unaware of the existence of the Fund or many of them have not been able to be located.
It is very important that all boxers who are eligible receive the financial aid that corresponds to them.
