Prominent trainers fear more serious injuries in corporate boxing unless change MAT KERMEENALDEN WILLIAMS/STUFF Bryan Barry worries more injuries will happen in corporate boxing unless the sport is better regulated. Two prominent New Zealand boxing trainers fear corporate contestants could be vulnerable to serious injuries, or worse, unless events come under more scrutiny. Shatford wants to go a step further with only licensed trainers able to run corporate boxing events. Barry said there should at least be a licensed trainer as a match-maker for corporate boxing events. Shatford is frustrated injuries in corporate boxing not organised by licensed trainers reflect back on "well run and evenly matched tournaments".
