The style of boxing that AP promotes is referred to by many names and titles. Here at AP we prefer to call it Semi-professional boxing, and the reasons and logic behind this is;-

  • ‘White Collar’ refers to a specific working sector, which we believe does not reflect the current majority of participants. Also the majority of proper white collar boxers are ‘not’ paid to compete, it is merely a challenge

  • ‘Unlicensed’ usually refers to bouts not being sanctioned by the BBBoC or the ABA, however, although not sanctioned by these bodies, our events are all under the banner of the Pro-Fight League, a fully insured sanctioning body for combat sports. The term unlicensed also has connotations and the stigma of being ‘illegal’, which we are trying to avoid.

  • ‘Semi-Pro’ by our definition is an athlete or participant that takes part in a contest to earn both money, and to achieve personal goals, without having to dedicate themselves wholly to that sport or activity. Semi-Pro in an alternative source of income for our athletes.
