USA Boxing reinstated after 3-month suspension

Amateur boxing’s international governing body lifted its three-month suspension of USA Boxing over its response to several controversial statements by its former president.

The International Boxing Association’s (AIBA) disciplinary commission leveled the suspension last week, effectively canceling all American amateur boxing competitions and clinics until mid-January.

After USA Boxing’s new leadership appealed to AIBA, asking the governing body to refrain from punishing its 37,000 members for its response to ex-president Hal Adonis’ incendiary comments about female fighters to New Yorker magazine, USA Boxing announced AIBA had allowed competitions and clinics to resume.
