(Reuters) -World Boxing now counts over 100 national federations as members after its executive board approved 17 more applications to increase its list to 106, World Boxing said on Thursday.
World Boxing, established in 2023 amid concerns over the governance of the International Boxing Association (IBA), was granted provisional recognition by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in February, and will run the boxing competitions in the 2028 Olympics.
