Breakaway group launched to save boxing's Olympic status

cbc.ca

American and British boxing officials launched a breakaway group Thursday with the aim of saving boxing's place at the Olympics.

The new federation, to be called World Boxing, is a rival to the 77-year-old International Boxing Association, which has been excluded from organizing the sport at the Olympics amid longstanding concerns about fair judging and the IBA's ties to Russia.

World Boxing will be based in Switzerland and have a board consisting of athletes and officials, including USA Boxing president Tyson Lee and GB Boxing chief executive Matthew Holt.

Lauren Price of Britain, a gold medallist at the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, and silver medallist Richard Torrez Jr. of the United States are on the board as athlete representatives.
