World Series of Boxing

[Bear Hugger]

Just seen a few fight links for World Series of Boxing, checked the nfo file and found this website.

 

The World Series of Boxing or WSB is a professional international boxing competition

that allows the professional boxers to maintain Olympic

eligibility, organised by AIBA. Unlike amateur boxing, competitors taking part

in sanctioned World Series of Boxing bouts must be bare-chested and are not

permitted to wear protective headgear. Each participating boxer is drafted by

one of a number of international franchises and can earn money by taking part

in professional-style bouts. However, they maintain olympic and AIBA world

championship eligibility and remain eligible to compete at the Olympic Games.

Like professional boxing, each bout is decided by the scores of three judges

or, in some cases, by a knockout, technical knockout or walk-over. A WSB meet

between two international franchises consists of bouts in ten (formerly five)

weight categories. There are five three-minute rounds in each bout and the team

that wins the most number of bouts wins the meet.

All Teams, schedules, Results so far can be found on the link. Runs until

April.
