Registration opens for IBA Women’s World Boxing Championships 2025 in Niš

PhilBoxing.com


Lausanne, Switzerland – We are thrilled to officially announce that the 2025 IBA Women’s World Boxing Championships will take place in the city of Niš, Serbia, from 8 to 17 March 2025, with the registration period now open until 20 February 2025.

This prestigious event is the female cornerstone of our sport, showcasing the incredible talent and determination of athletes from around the world. This competition is a chance to unite, inspire, and celebrate the power of women’s boxing on a global scale, and the IBA is calling on all our National Federations to participate to continue making this event a tremendous success.

IBA President, Umar Kremlev, said: ‘I am very excited for the return of our IBA Women’s World Boxing Championships, where the best female boxers in the world will fight for the crown. A world title or medal can be the catalyst and turning point for a great boxing career, IBA is very capable of changing the lives of athletes from every part of the globe, as boxing is a great tool for upward mobility. It is a chance to achieve greatness, so I call for all to register their athletes to ensure they can fulfil their dreams. This is an opportunity for our loyal members to come together in Serbia, showing how important unity is in our sport – we are one Boxing Family. I wish all competitors, coaches and officials the best of luck during the championships.’

IBA Secretary General and CEO, Chris Roberts OBE, said: ‘The IBA’s relationship with Serbia continues to be strong and we once again absolutely know that the Local Organizing Committee (LOC), under the direction of the Serbian Boxing Federation President, will deliver the highest standards they have shown in the past. With the 2021 IBA Men’s World Boxing Championships and the 2024 EUBC Men’s and Women’s European Boxing Championships both held successfully in Belgrade, we are sure our hosts will deliver a spectacular event in Niš. My thanks go to the Serbian Boxing Federation and those organizers for their work so far.’

Serbian Boxing Federation President Nenad Borovčanin added: ‘Serbia will once again be the global epicentre of boxing. After the spectacular IBA Men's World Boxing Championship in 2021, which we organized at the Stark Arena and wrote the history of boxing by shaping the biggest championships in this sport ever, it is time for the task in which we expect to move those set limits to another level. In two months from now, over 500 female boxers from over 100 countries will participate in the championships in 12 weight categories.’

He went on to say, ‘We have started the organization deep in 2024, now we are entering the final stages and can proudly say that we are expecting the IBA Women's World Boxing Championships to be something that has never been seen before. With the registration starting, we expect a large number of boxers to come to the largest city of the southern part of Serbia from all aspects of the globe and to fight not only for medals and titles, but also for valuable prize money. Serbia continues to be a force in the organization of world sports events with decades of long tradition, that confirms its place as a sports superpower.’

The registration period will remain open until 20 February 2025.
