Nathan Newman: Of all sports stars, boxers are probably the most exploited, since there is no formal sports league, so promoters exploit boxers at will, even as the need for protection and long term benefits, especially after injury, is nowhere more needed. So J.A.B. will end up being more than just a negotiating arm of boxers-- it may restructure the whole sport to end the rule of opportunists and the real corporate thugs who control the game today.
