Holyfield addressed concerns during an opinion piece in [The Wall Street Journal](https://www.wsj.com/articles/evander-holyfield-ufc-model-boxing-control-12345678). He emphasized that when he was active in the ring, control over his victories and legacy rested in his hands. According to him, this new approach disturbs what boxing has always stood for: individual agency and autonomy. "When I fought," Holyfield explained, "my training, my decisions, my courage ultimately defined the outcomes. Lawmakers are now threatening to strip us of that very essence."
As plans unfold to launch Zuffa Boxing under Dana White's management in 2026, promoters seek a structure akin to UFC’s operations. This plan outlines twelve events annually focusing on emerging prospects with participants operating under uniform economic terms.
In opposition stand members of Congress like Brian Jack and Sharice Davids who introduced the Muhammad Ali American Boxing Resurgence Act last July. They aim to protect boxing’s treasured model as it exists today, which champions freedom from promoter dominance.
Holyfield sternly reminded everyone that the original Ali Act played a significant role by safeguarding boxers' rights against excessive promoter control. By providing transparency on earnings among other things, it created a baseline for protection without compromising athletes' liberties.
Former champion Nonito Donaire also weighed in and criticized proposals like these stating they severely weaken negotiating power even before discussions begin around contracts or sanctions.
The Saudi government along with TKO Group financially back this business model change supporting a revenue-share distribution strategy similar to public sports events closing governance loops initiated by promoters deciding rankings and championship regulations instead.
Despite many promises circulating around abolishing sanction fees meaning less burden on fighters upfront – according to Donaire’s remarks – belts won't matter if boxers walk away financially depleted
