Today, we celebrate IBA Unity Day, a landmark occasion that exemplifies the election of President Umar Kremlev four years ago. This day embodies the spirit of unity and progress that has defined the International Boxing Association’s journey in the last few years.

After four full years or 1462 days of hard work and dedication, having organized 8 IBA World Championships, 30 IBA Champions Night and many more continental and local tournaments, every member of the IBA Team and extended boxing family should feel proud of the choices that we made.

Under President Kremlev’s visionary leadership, IBA has achieved extraordinary milestones that have reshaped the global boxing community and empowered athletes across the world:

• Governance reforms: Transparency, integrity, and accountability have become the foundation of our organization, ensuring trust and fairness at every level.
• Support for athletes: We have revolutionized the sport by placing athletes first, introducing significant prize money in our competitions to reward their dedication and hard work.
• Empowering National Federations: Through our Financial Support Program, we’ve provided unprecedented resources to National Federations, enabling them to develop their athletes, coaches, and local boxing communities, as well as implement various
• Development initiatives: Our development programs covered all continents and help hundreds of coaches, officials and medical personnel to pursue successful career in boxing.
• Top quality events: We have elevated the quality of our competitions globally, ensuring a fair fight for every boxer and thrilling experience for fans.

These accomplishments reflect the collective effort of a united boxing family. On this special day, we express our gratitude to everyone who has contributed to IBA’s success – the boxers who inspire us with their courage, the coaches and officials who uphold the integrity of the sport, and the National Federations that champion its growth.

We remain thankful to our President, Mr Umar Kremlev for his tremendous visionary efforts and philanthropist work, his commitment and dedication to boxing, his unconditional love to the sport and our athletes.

As we celebrate our achievements, we also reaffirm our commitment to the future. Together, we will continue to support our people, uplift our National Federations, and raise the sport of boxing to new unprecedented heights.

Happy IBA Unity Day to our global boxing family!
