In the EU platforms can be found guilty for what they publish though. It is the platform’s responsibility and duty to check whether their content is violating the law or not.

I can’t say much more about the rest but there are certainly legal standards for boxing that need to be abided for a boxing event to be legal. This includes having medical staff on site, a referee which manages the match, gloves being mandated for the boxers etc. If these standards aren’t held, you can charge a boxer for participating in an illegal fight and manslaughter should the other boxer die.
