Retired boxers finally getting what they're owed from California after Times investigation

California's little-known retirement plan for boxers paid benefits to three dozen fighters this year, a record number since the program began 40 years ago, but still only a small fraction of those owed money by the state.

The increased payouts from the California Professional Boxers' Pension Plan follow The Times' investigation in May that found the state failed to notify boxers about their benefits, resulting in most retirement accounts going unclaimed each year, even as some former fighters struggled with poverty and health problems.
