VENTNOR CITY, N.J. (十二月 5, 2018) – The relaunched International Boxing Association (IBA) is making a full commitment to women’s boxing, commencing with a new rule change to sanction 12-round world title fights.

The IBA is going back to the future having been an original pioneer in terms of giving much deserved recognition to women’s boxing, represented by former IBA world champions such as 萊拉·阿里, 米婭聖. 約翰· 和 冬青霍爾姆.

在 1991, two-time Major League Baseball all-star pitcher and Cy Young Award winner Dean Chance founded the IBA, guiding the international sanctioning body until his death in 2015.

Under a new group headed by IBA president J.C. Courreges, the IBA relaunched during the summer of 2017. “This is the IBA’s first step towards establishing equality between men and women in professional boxing,” Courreges announced. “Our goal is to offer equality for women boxers in our organization. Women’s world title fights are 10, 2-minute rounds, 不 12, like in the IBA. “

“There is a new wave of women’s boxing, led by Claressa盾, 凱蒂·泰勒, 阿曼達·塞拉諾 and so many other rising female stars worldwide. The IBA plans to be in the forefront and we recently crowned our first woman world champion, strawweight Eva Guzman, of Venezuela. 在 2019, we look forward to crowning many other women IBA world champions, in what the IBA is calling the Year of Women’s Boxing.”

Former IBA world champions during the past quarter-century include Hall-of-Famers 霍亞, 喬治·福爾曼, 羅伯托·杜蘭 和 阿圖羅·加蒂, as well as stars such as 羅伊·瓊斯, Jr.,Bernard Hopkins, 巴蒂爾莫斯利, 詹姆斯·托尼, Mikkel Kessler, Eric Morales, 科拉萊斯迭戈, 何塞·路易斯·卡斯蒂略, 格倫 - 約翰遜 和 安東尼奧·塔弗.
