BERLIN (Reuters) - The Court of Arbitration for Sport on Tuesday upheld an appeal by hopeful Serik Konakbayev against his exclusion from next month's vote to elect the new president of international boxing association AIBA.

AIBA has been beset by serious financial and governance problems which have put its spot at the 2020 Olympics in jeopardy with the International Olympic Committee telling it to fix the current problems by next month or face an Olympic exit.
