He stated that he wants to make the business safe and to operate only under the supervision of a doctor, much like professional boxing. The proposed bill would require each promotion to pay a one-time fee of $1000 and then $250 per show thereafter, with the money going to the Georgia Athletic and Entertainment Commission.
