They spent ten months on contracts and zero on a concussion protocol, in a sport where the object is to knock the other guy out. Somewhere there's a kid who'll find out what that cost him, and nobody will ever connect it to today.

Nico Ali Walsh Endorses the Ali Revival Act, and Ted Cruz Makes It Markup Day’s Headline boxinginsider.com/headlines/…
Today, we will mark up the Muhammad Ali American Boxing Revival Act, which now has stronger protections for fighters thanks to our work with Nico Ali Walsh. Nico cares deeply about protecting fighters and the future of boxing. Originally opposed to the bill, he came before the Committee and raised concerns about boxer safety. At that hearing, I made clear that I wanted stakeholders who had concerns to work with me to strengthen the legislation. Nico answered that call. He took time away from his own career to work directly with our offices and push for stronger protections for fighters. His input helped shape meaningful improvements to the bill, and the final product is stronger because of his involvement. I’m grateful for the work Nico put into this and for his commitment to making sure this legislation works for the fighters whose careers and livelihoods are on the line. Sen. Rosen and I are proud to have the support of a fighter who has advocated fiercely for his peers and worked to make sure legislation bearing his grandfather’s name is worthy of that legacy.
