    thank you. i went to the website and it has pictures of pacquiao, hatton, mayweather, hopkins, etc training in there ( i guess he also has a big time gym also in LV). i am asking because one of my friends wants to become a boxing promoter and i am trying to get him to have a meeting with chance to get some connections and what not
    It just seems like a one of a million type sanctioning body from what I can tell. Hopefully someone else can tell you more about it, but I have no idea. You could always email them, but I suspect they might just send you a bunch of propaganda rather than explain where exactly they sit in the boxing world.

    Unless your friend is a shady, duplicitous, ruthless backing-stabbing son of a bitch I'd suggest he find a different line of work
    dont think its quite one in a million haha, check it out

    I said one of a million, as in there are many other sanctioning bodies that play the same role. I assume by looking at their website and wiki page that it's a relatively small-time player in the boxing world. However, it could quite rationally be argued that these groups play important roles in exposing prospects and helping to legitimize them as contenders as they climb the ranks.

    You trying to raise awareness or something? Posting top fighters and all makes it just too obvious.

    Well not for nothing you come here as a new guy asking about the IBA (nothing wrong with asking questions)....Telling us your Father is friends with the President of the organization...(Can't he tell you anything about it)...The you say you know little about the organization yet come up with a half dozen pictures of fighters training there....I mean if you are able to have the pics or find them on the net then why cant you know anything else about it?

    Maybe you should have asked peoples opinions on it instead of playing dumb
