Hello.
Has boxrec fallen out with the WBA?
I haven’t been on the website for a while but have noticed the is no mention of the organisation anywhere on the records database.
Sorry if this has been covered before.

Sign up and you can see them listed. It’s behind a paywall.

If I login it still doesn’t list any of the WBA stuff. Seems odd.

You can pay a small sub fee which unlocks things. One of them is seeing WBA.

Slightly bizarre marketing tactic for seeking paid subscriptions…. :D

"For only £1 a month you can see all, yes that’s right ALL the WBA world title matches!!!!! (Not available on the basic free sign up!)"

Who’s doing in charge of the payment model…. The same guys who do the pricing at DAZN? :D

Also boxrec is the original leading boxing record database and the most used - it just seems odd to withdraw important boxing information unless you pay. People hate paying for information on the internet.

Out of interest, what else do you get with the paid subscription?
