Question
I was just wondering who I would have to contact to become a liscensed professional boxer in the state of Illinois?  Thank You for your help

Answer
Hi Ron,
Thanks for the question.
You need to contact the Illinois Boxing Commission.
Here's the necessary information:

Illinois - 312-814-2721
ILLINOIS BOXING COMMISSION
100 WEST RANDOLPH SUITE 9-300
CHICAGO, IL 60601

They should be able to guide you through the process for obtaining a license in that state.

I hope this helps, Ron!
Thanks again for writing.

Regards,
Lian
