The official statement of the President of WBO Gustavo Olivieri, ESQ.

Gustavo Olivieri, president of the World Boxing Organization, said World Boxing News that boxing 15 rounds will not take place under his watch.

After turning off WBN with the President of WBC Mauricio Sulaiman, who had similar views, Olivieri pointed to the initial decision to reduce the fights for the championship from 15 to 12 rounds.

Olivieri said only WBN: “I definitely oppose the idea of ​​restoring the 15-round championships in any format, because it would be a clear step backwards for the safety of fighters. Boxing is a unsafe sport by nature, and the transition to 12-round fight was a necessary reform to reduce fatigue and long-term health threats. “

After the predecessor of Olivieri, Paco Valcarcel, called every 15-round movement-which his counterpart WBA was willing to fall apart-“crazy”, the modern president believes that all transitions in sport should be directed elsewhere.

“As regulatory bodies, our main responsibility is the security priorities of fighters and constantly increasing protective measures. Instead of visiting previous internships, we should focus on strengthening medical protocols, improving the well -being of fighters, maintaining honesty and transparency in our activities, and ensuring that sport is still evolving in a way that protects its athletes.

“The pursuit of size in the ring should never be the cost of a warrior’s long-term health, both during their career,” he summarized.

Like Olivieri, Sulaiman expressed concern about where security standards are going when it comes to recent debates. Teofimo Lopez began a 15-round discussion, referring to the growing trend bordering the unquestioned fighters.

Adding three consecutive rounds would do nothing to decipher the best boxer on the planet and only escalate the risk of brain damage, which is already extremely high.

Turki Alalshikh, whose magazine broadcast Lopez’s request to fight 15-order, spoke less than 12 hours after WBN emphasized the dangers.

“No, I don’t support this idea in any way,” said Saudi Meczak. “This is harmful to the warrior’s health. I would never be behind the fighting returning to 15 rounds.

“In my opinion, even a 12-round fight may be too much for the health of the warrior, but 15 rounds are excluded. The 15-round fight should never be able. “

Lopez replied to Alalshikha, saying: “I am shaking my crazy head, Turks Alalshikh. Nevertheless, I respect your wishes. From one lion to another. “

On Saturday evening, Fabio Wardley returns against Hungry Matchroom Prospect Justis Huni, who wants to spoil the program on Portman Road.

Fabio Wardley vs Justis Huni will be shown all over the world to Dazna.

The legendary Teddy Atlas coach shocked fans by publishing an amazing $ 1500 plant Social media.

Atlas publicly supported Huni’s Australian perspective before the most arduous test of his career.

The coach, Atlas, said: “I see in Justis Huni what I initially saw in Agit Kabayel” before I published a screenshot of my gigantic plant in social media.

These words, coming from such a valued name in boxing, are a sturdy representation for Huni – a warrior who has not yet understood the real level.

The comparison with Kabayel is compelling, with the form in which the German is located. Especially after receiving the victory of the statement on May 18th 2024 against Frank Sanchez.

Kabayel was seen as establishing a bet against Sanchez, but something that Huni would want to imitate in Ipswich.

Both men move sideways and do not rely under the final fight, despite the shots in their arsenal.

“JPH” Huni detained seven of twelve professional opponents, so it is possible to stop.

However, for Wardley he will want to continue his amazing boxing history. In the rematch he leaves the destructive victory over the Clarke phrase.

Wardley is going to return home in Ipswich before at least 20,000 fans.

Wardley’s “Barista” was overdue in boxing.

Without amateur origin, he passed through the rankings of the “White Collar” before he changed the professional in 2017.

“Before Fabio Wardley chose a few boxing gloves, Justis Huni was a box for twelve years, at some point that must matter” – Dev Sahni.

Huni had a completely different entry into boxing, rising through amateurs with many discretion, for example, being a country champion.

The Australian is still relatively unknown in Great Britain and will want to make a statement that he sends shock waves through the heavyweight division on Saturday evening.

The question about the weekend is whether Wardley can continue his unexpected growth of this sport, or whether Huni’s experience and foundation will catch him on a home pitch.
