Form Dos 0780 PDF Details

In the complex and highly regulated world of professional boxing, paperwork like the DOS-0780 form, also known as the Boxer/Promoter Contract, plays a crucial role in formalizing the agreements between all parties involved in a bout. This document, utilized within the jurisdiction of the New York State Athletic Commission, establishes a legally binding contract between a boxer and a promoter, detailing the terms under which a boxing contest will be held. It encompasses a wide array of considerations such as compensation, which may be a fixed sum or a percentage of gross receipts from ticket sales, the use of approved boxing gloves, weight class restrictions, and distribution of broadcast rights. Furthermore, it outlines the conditions under which the contract may be voided, such as failure to make weight or enter the contest in good faith. This contract also mandates the use of protective gear approved by the Commission to minimize disputations over illegal blows and stipulates the forfeiture conditions should a party fail to fulfill their contractual obligations. The inclusion of specific provisions for licensing and regulatory compliance underscores the Commission’s role in overseeing professional boxing engagements within New York State, ensuring the safety, fairness, and integrity of the sport. Whether for promoters, boxers, or managers, understanding the DOS-0780 is essential for navigating the professional boxing landscape in New York.
