NearPup 1,580 Posted May 12 #4 Share Posted May 12 It should certainly be the end of the IBA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 9,113 Posted May 12 #5 Share Posted May 12 This is the same thing as Russia. Always blah blah, but the IOC will not have the spine to do anything. Boxing will survive (and under AIBA, one way or another). All King Victor Emmanuel's Show Horses Can Make Really Beautiful People Fall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mkbw50 278 Posted May 15 #7 Share Posted May 15 Just wait until the Dear Leader hears about this. He will "express grave concern" about the "gender diversity, youthfulness and urbanity" of the IBA and then appoint a 12-year-old refugee to be President dcro, MHSN and intoronto 3 As now we come across the world To share these Games of old Let all the flags of every land In brotherhood unfold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshMartini007 923 Posted May 15 #9 Share Posted May 15 Boxing as a sport has too much support, it would be like trying to get rid of gymnastics, I just don't see it happening. At best the IOC would just recognize someone else as the true boxing federation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
