Also know as the “Malta Boxing Organisation” This boxing group is neither affiliated nor recognized by the Malta Boxing Federation or any organization connected to Olympic Boxing. All claims by this group of any sort of connection to AIBA boxing is false and misleading.

The Malta Boxing Federation is open to all boxing clubs and boxing organisations who abide by the AIBA rules and adopt without reservations article 4 of the AIBA statutes. For the rest of this article click below
