Paris Olympic, boxing’s future appears uncertain unless a dramatic intervention takes place

Not only has the IOC not lifted IBA’s suspension but the executive board has recommended it. The IOC session withdraws recognition from the boxing federation. IBA had a combative response. Their president Umar Kremlev said we committed to and executed a change in the toxic and corrupt culture that was allow to fester under the IOC for far too long.

He claimed Strong, autonomous, and financially independent international federations should be keenly aware. And concerned as they are witnessing the time-tested political and strategic tool of orchestrated coups for the sake of regime change, leaving only one winner. The organization seeks absolute power, and many losers consist mainly of the athletes.

Today this happens to IBA and becomes a precedent for others. So everybody should be concerned about the unchecked power of the body that has no limits. Some national federations however had already lost faith in IBA’s ability to reform. For instance, before the IOC made its recommendation the USA withdrew from IBA to join World Boxing.

The newly formed association was establish earlier this year as an alternative to IBA. Great Britain also announced their intention to apply for World Boxing membership. The future of Olympic boxing is uncertain. As the sport finds itself embroiled in a crisis that threatens its place in the Paris Olympic Games.

Paris Olympic qualification

While there is still a glimmer of hope, Olympic boxing’s future appears uncertain unless a dramatic intervention takes place. As it stands, the Paris Olympic 2024 Games are set to be the last to include boxing. The exclusion of boxing from the program for the Los Angeles 2028 Games was a result of the IOC’s demand for comprehensive reforms from the IBA.

This ongoing crisis in Olympic boxing has been escalating since the tumultuous aftermath of the boxing tournament at the 2016 Rio Olympics. The IOC’s concerns regarding bout manipulation, officiating, and financial transparency prompted their call for reform.

The situation deteriorated to the point where the IOC suspended IBA in 2019. And established its own Boxing Task Force to oversee the Paris Olympic qualification and boxing tournaments for both the Tokyo 2021 and Paris 2024 Games. However, this impasse could not persist indefinitely. IBA commissioned Richard McLaren to investigate corruption within the organization.

Yet, IBA faced further controversy when it denied Boris van der Vorst of the Netherlands. The opportunity to run against Umar Kremlev of Russia in the election for the role of IBA president. The sponsorship from Russian state-owned energy giant Gazprom. Coupled with IBA’s decision to allow Russian and Belarusian athletes to compete. Under their national flags following, the invasion of Ukraine drew additional condemnation.

The gravity of the concerns surrounding IBA prompted major boxing nations. Such as Great Britain, the USA, and Ireland boycotting this year men’s and women’s World Championships. Consequently, IBA’s reform efforts have fallen short of satisfying the IOC.

Stakes remain high for Olympic boxing

In response to this recommendation, IBA’s president, Umar Kremlev. Expressed his organization’s commitment to change the toxic and corrupt culture. That prevailed for far too long under the IOC’s supervision. He warned other international federations about the unchecked power of the IOC. And it is the potential to orchestrate coups for regime change, resulting in winners and losers, primarily the athletes.

However, some national federations had already lost faith in IBA’s ability to reform. The USA, for example, withdrew from IBA to join World Boxing. A newly formed association that emerged as an alternative to IBA. Great Britain also announced its intention to apply for World Boxing membership. According to Mike McAtee, the executive director of USA Boxing.

The decision to leave IBA was driven by concerns about fairness, good governance, financial transparency, athlete well-being, and fair competition. He emphasized the importance of adhering to a culture that upholds these principles, rather than merely relying on bylaws and regulations. IBA, on the other hand, maintains that it is undertaking adequately.

Reforms to rectify past problems and prevent their recurrence. The organization intends to appeal the IOC’s recommendation at the Court of Arbitration for Sport. Vowing to uphold its autonomy and independence in governing the sport. During this crisis, Umar Kremlev highlighted the financial support and substantial prize money brought in under his leadership at IBA. However, the stakes remain high for Olympic boxing.
