FAQ:
Who runs and regulates boxing?
No one individual or entity worldwide actually owns, runs and regulates boxing.
The main world title belt sanctioning bodies charge sanctioning fees for the top world title bouts in pro boxing to the boxers competing and promoters of the leading events in the sport.
The four main sanctioning bodies (world title belt organizations) in professional boxing are considered:
WBC: World Boxing Council based in Mexico City, Mexico.
WBO: World Boxing Organization based in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
WBA: World Boxing Association based in Panama City, Panama.
IBF: International Boxing Federation based in New Jersey, USA.
(An honourable mention goes to the unofficial 5th organization, the IBO: International Boxing Organization based in Florida, USA).
In the United States the sport is regulated medically for the fighters State to State by different Athletic Commissions.
More information on that can be found in ABC Boxing.
However, worldwide, the sport at a professional level is self-regulated and ran by a combination of TV companies, streaming companies and promotional companies who fund events and enlist drug testing companies for individual events for pro boxers based on the different nation’s set ups.
In the UK the British Boxing Board of Control regulate boxing by ensuring appropriate medicals are done by fighters and regulate the sport more or less the same as the US Athletic Commissions, but in the UK.
At amateur level, the sport as of 2024 was in a controversial space as IBA Boxing (Switzerland) whom used to regulate amateur boxing in the Olympics, ceased doing so for the Paris 2024 Olympics, with the IOC (International Olympic Committee) removing them and regulating amateur boxing at the Olympics at this time.
Now thankfully however — boxing is back in the Olympics in LA 2028 under the governance of World Boxing.
Lead by chairman and former middleweight champion of the world Gennady Golovkin.
Who is considered the best boxer ever?
This is always a difficult question to answer.
Subjective to opinion of boxing fans.
Many believe it is between the likes of Muhammad Ali or “Sugar” Ray Robinson.
Alas, boxing is a sport that has created many heroes that don’t wear capes over the years.
