The white-collar boxing is back in Beijing, and the gate to sign up is now open.
Last year, a group of 22 white-collar professionals fought in 11 clashes at the Park Hyatt Hotel in Beijing during a glamorous black-tie charity dinner attended by around 500.
As in other white-collar boxing events around the world, the fighters, with occupations ranging from editor, engineer, radio host to manager, were all amateurs and had no previous boxing experience.
Shanghai-based China Sports Promotions (CSP) has been organizing white-collar boxing annually since 2008 in Shanghai ("Brawl on The Bund"), Beijing ("Brawl on The Wall") and Macau ("Mayhem in Macao").
Basically, any healthy white-collar professional is qualified to sign up for the CSP program, which is designed to prepare a person with zero experience to be able to fight on the stage within three months.
Compared with professional boxing, the bouts in an amateur fight are mercifully brief, with only three rounds of two minutes' fighting, and the referee can stop the fight at any stage if safety is compromised.
