Default Does boxing have a Union

Just wondering. Does boxing have a union like NBA,NFL etc. I swear they dont becasue boxing in not a team sport so how the hell can they have a union. But yea long story short is my roomate talks shit about MMA fighters cuz they dont make alot of money like boxer's cuz there's UNION. And i want to shut him the fuck up with Facts rather than my Fist. Thanks.

MMA fighters dont make as much as Boxers because Boxers have GOVERNING BODIES, not a fucking union lol. Boxing is a self-promoting sport, MMA you work for a company pretty much.
