Personally, I don't think that one need pass any ethics barrier to be allowed to step in a boxing ring. It's not as if he is a lawyer, accountant, doctor, etc.

I for one, would go for the spectacle. I'm hardly a big boxing fan.

I guess I just expect "professionals" to behave as such. Boxing, as any sport, has rules. Those who don't abide by them should be barred from competeing. By allowing him in the ring, they are sending the message that his behavior is acceptable and the only thing that matters is money.
