In 1980 there were just under ten thousand professional boxers worldwide.  That statistic  has risen to 23,000 active boxers today.

There are two hundred and twenty seven boxing commissions. And  8, 328 suspensions over a twelve month period.  In the last year BoxRec six showing suspensions of boxers.
