Boxing has been a part of the Olympic Games since 1904, but it is now under threat of being removed from the Olympic program. A group of boxing stakeholders have come together to form the International Boxing Association (AIBA) in order to preserve boxing’s Olympic status.
The AIBA is a non-profit organization that works to promote and develop the sport of boxing around the world. The organization is made up of representatives from all five continents, including representatives from the International Olympic Committee, the World Boxing Council, the World Boxing Organization, and the International Amateur Boxing Association.
The AIBA’s mission is to ensure that boxing remains an Olympic sport and to promote the sport’s development worldwide. To do this, the AIBA has implemented a number of initiatives, including the creation of an Olympic Qualification System, which allows boxers to qualify for the Olympic Games based on their performance in international competitions. The AIBA also works to ensure that all boxers are treated fairly and that all bouts are conducted in a safe and fair manner.
The AIBA works closely with national boxing federations to ensure that all boxers receive proper training and coaching. The organization also provides financial support to national federations in order to help them develop their programs. Additionally, the AIBA works to ensure that all boxers have access to proper medical care and safety measures.
The AIBA has been successful in its efforts to preserve boxing’s Olympic status. In 2016, the International Olympic Committee voted unanimously to keep boxing as an Olympic sport. This decision was largely due to the efforts of the AIBA and its commitment to promoting and developing the sport of boxing around the world.
The AIBA is committed to ensuring that boxing remains an Olympic sport and that all boxers are treated fairly and have access to proper training and medical care. The organization’s efforts have been successful in preserving boxing’s Olympic status and ensuring that the sport continues to thrive around the world.
