AI Summary

This bill modifies Indiana's regulations regarding boxing and martial arts by changing the Indiana Gaming Commission's regulatory authority from optional to mandatory. Specifically, the bill requires (rather than allows) the commission to adopt rules regulating mixed martial arts, martial arts, professional wrestling, boxing, bare-knuckle fighting, and sparring. The bill incorporates by reference the most recent version of the unified rules established by the Association of Boxing Commissions and Combative Sports, which will now have the same legal force as the state's existing regulations. The unified rules will apply specifically to the commission's regulation of these combat sports, and in case of any conflicts between the unified rules and existing state law, the state law will take precedence. The bill defines "unified rules" as the most recent version of rules adopted by the Association of Boxing Commissions and Combative Sports and is set to take effect on July 1, 2025. This change aims to standardize and strengthen the state's oversight of combat sports by adopting a comprehensive, up-to-date set of regulatory guidelines.
