§ 240. Approval of Contestants.
Currentness
(a) All boxing contests shall be approved by the executive officer or his designee. Main event contracts shall be placed on file with the commission for approval at least 72 hours prior to the event unless an exception is made by the executive officer or his designee. Contracts for all other boxers contending on the card shall be filed prior to the scheduled weigh-in time for the event unless an exception is made by the executive officer or his designee. No promoter may release the names of contestants to the media or otherwise publicize a contest unless a contract has been executed between the parties and the contest is approved by the executive officer or his designee.
(b) The grounds for denial of a promoter's request to hold a boxing contest are as follows:
(1) The failure of the promoter or any person connected with the promotion and under the jurisdiction of the commission to comply with any statute or rule regulating boxing in California.
(2) The contest would tend to be a mismatch based on the record, experience, skill and condition of the contestants.
(3) The commission does not have adequate staff to enforce the statutes and rules regulating boxing enacted and adopted to protect the health, safety and welfare of the participants and consumers and guarantee the collection of revenue due to the state from the contest and all ancillary rights incidental thereto.
