PunchCard Live
A live boxing tournament companion that pushes round-by-round judge scorecards, foul alerts, and disqualification replays so fans can track every bout at multi-day events like the Commonwealth Games without watching all of it.
Casual boxing fans who follow tournaments but can't sit through every fight
- Live round-by-round push alerts with the three judges' scorecards overlaid
- Disqualification and foul-detection explainer videos for each call
- Tournament bracket tracker with athlete backstory cards and prior-fight footage
- Post-event recap with controversial-call breakdowns and community polls
Disqualifications like the Aziz Abdul headbutt dominate headlines but most fans only catch the clip later — there's a clear gap for a tournament-specific companion that turns the drama into a live, shareable experience.
Multi-day amateur boxing tournaments are sparse (Glasgow 2026 CWG, Olympics every 4 yrs, Worlds); the cited 'idi amin' Google Trends spike is about the Ugandan dictator, not boxing, so it offers no real demand signal and the casual-fan use case is narrow.201 boxers from 43 Nations set to face-off when boxing gets underway at the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games ↗Boxing at the 2026 Commonwealth Games - Wikipedia ↗
BoxChamp already ships live round-by-round scorecards, push notifications, official-judge comparisons, and leagues; Combatscores and ScoreCounter cover the rest. The 'tournament-specific multi-day companion' angle is a thin overlay on a crowded category.BoxChamp - Score Fights. Compete. Win. ↗Combatscores scoring app | Boxing scorecards. MMA scorecards ↗
No public subscription pricing was found for existing boxing-companion apps; casual fans — the stated target — are notoriously hard to convert to paid, and event-driven usage spikes make sustained subscription revenue unlikely.Combatscores - Boxing / MMA - Apps on Google Play ↗
Engagement is gated to a handful of multi-day events per year (Olympics, CWG, Worlds, EU Games) — strong peaks but long dead zones in between, limiting retention and ad/subscription LTV.Boxing at the 2026 Commonwealth Games - Wikipedia ↗
Scorecard UX is buildable (BoxChamp proves the stack: Boxing Data API + Firebase + SwiftUI), but real-time foul/DQ push alerts need costly official data feeds or per-event moderators, and 'disqualification replays' require broadcast rights a startup cannot license.BoxChamp - Score Fights.
