The event takes place from December 2 to December 13, and IBA president Umar Kremlev said: “This December, we will set a new benchmark in the history of boxing. The Men’s Elite World Championships in Dubai will not simply be a competition, it will be a global festival of boxing; unmatched in scale, talent, and spirit. With over 95 national federations to date participating and world-class athletes such as Hasanboy Dustmatov and the legendary Julio La Cruz of Cuba, this event will be one of the finest showcases the sport has ever seen.
