The world body of boxing has taken the decision to change its name. It is now called IBA, acronym of World Boxing Association (International boxing association). The name change is accompanied by governance reforms developed by independent experts, led by Canadian Richard McLaren and German Ulrich Haas. Example: the creation of an independent Integrity Unit, which should be operational during the year 2022. Boxing is not yet formally included in the program of the Los Angeles 2028 Games, the IOC Executive Board having decided a few days ago to put the discipline aside, just like modern pentathlon and weightlifting. .
