As part of Governor Matt Bevin’s Red Tape Reduction Intitiative, several unnecessary boxing and wrestling regulations have been eliminated or amended to improve growth of such sporting events in Kentucky. The changes will ultimately allow a bigger market for both the local and national promotion of live combat sports and wrestling events like WWE, boxing, and mixed martial arts. Boxing and Wrestling Commissioner Chad Miller said “the regulations are all about economic opportunity for promoters and contestants across the Commonwealth and advancing fighter health and safety.”
