Per consentire ai disabili motori di praticare il pugilato, è stata costituita una commissione di professionisti cha ha valutato i problemi etici, medici, tecnici e di classificazione per l'avvio di una fase sperimentale della durata di 5 anni dove gli atleti saranno seguiti e monitorati assiduamente. Sono stati redatti un Regolamento tecnico ed un Manuale di classificazione. La fase pre-pugilistica dovrebbe permettere di raggiungere un buon livello di benessere psico-fisico, così da poter praticare successivamente il pugilato a contatto leggero. Sono stati prodotti alcuni prototipi di pedane per il sitting ring e infine predisposti corsi formativi per tecnici, arbitri, classificatori e medici, con valutazioni finali per le varie qualifiche, nonché linee guida necessarie per praticare pugilato per disabili motori in sicurezza.
