Since its inception in 1963, the WBC has dedicated every effort available to find ways and means to improve all aspects of boxing and make it a safer sport for all participants.
The WBC has broken previously accepted boxing paradigms to make changes with the sole intention of improving the sport. In the process, the WBC has done its utmost to benefit boxers before, during and after their glory days in the ring.
One of the most innovative rules, which is undoubtedly an important incentive for our boxers, is the 10% bonus to the winner of a mandatory fight, which has been decided in an auction between promoters. The auctioned amount is divided 90% for both boxers and 10% is left to be a bonus for the winner of the fight.
That is, the winner, in addition to being recognized as WBC Green and Gold Champion and earning the corresponding percentage of salary, takes 10% of the total purse, thus giving great additional incentive.
O’shaquie Foster defended his WBC super featherweight title by defeating Mexican Eduardo Hernández, earning $46,666 in addition to his salary for the fight.
