SB 64 updates South Dakota's athletic commission laws by adding clear definitions for boxing, kickboxing, mixed martial arts, and related roles like managers and matchmakers. The bill repeals two outdated sections and substantially revises several others to modernize how the state regulates combat sports competitions and the people involved in organizing them.
