Seattle ring board may bar Clay Hite from staging shows
Seattle boxing commission moved to table a motion to bar promoter Clay Hite from staging shows in Seattle. The body cited alleged violations for promoting events without a permit and staged at the Crystal Pool for the American Legion, amid ongoing disputes with the Metropolitan Building Co and discussions of new venues. The panel also rejected a Star petition to hold a benefit smoker and asked city officials about control of the sport at a time boxing is paused.
