It's ridiculous.

Why did the World Boxing Association (WBA) disappear from Boxrec's data communication?

Post by vro75 »

I recently noticed that the World Boxing Association (WBA) boxing organization has disappeared from the Boxrec database without a trace! What is the reason for this? It is not listed among the registered organizations, nor among the title matches! As far as I know, the association has not been dissolved, so why did the site arbitrarily liquidate the WBA events? Thank you in advance for your urgent reply!

Good luck on an urgent reply. I have yet to hear from anyone from this site on the discussion of AIBA/World Series of Boxing events being excluded from records. I see others seem to not have their questions answered either.

world series of boxing fights arent excluded from their records, just in the amateur section of it. if i recall, back when the wsb was active there was much debate/discussion around their status

The problem is they don't list any AIBA(IBA) professional style fights. Michael Hunter lost a 10 round decision to Artem Suslenkov on April 14, 2024 in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. It's not listed under any of his fights. The question is are these actually pro fights reported to the respective commissions, or are they more in the realm of exhibitions.

It is bullsh!t for any organization that bills itself as:

“ BoxRec or boxrec.com is the official record keeper of the sport of boxing.”

To leave out a major world title from its database….no matter what the beef is.
