Statement made by the International Boxing Associationregarding Athletes Disqualifications in World Boxing Championships 2023
July 31st, 2024 / IBA
On 24 March 2023, IBA disqualified athletes Lin Yu-ting andImane Khelif from the IBA Women’s World Boxing Championships New Delhi 2023.This disqualification was a result of their failure to meet the eligibilitycriteria for participating in the women’s competition
The decision made by IBA on 24 March 2023, was subsequentlyratified by the IBA Board of Directors on 25 March 2023. The official record ofthis decision can be accessed on the IBA website here IBA Board of DirectorsMeeting Minutes.
The disqualification was based on two tests conducted onboth athletes as follows:
- Test performed during the IBA Women’s WorldBoxing Championships in Istanbul 2022.
- Test performed during the IBA Women’s WorldBoxing Championships in New Delhi 2023.
For clarification
Lin Yu-ting did not appeal the IBA’s decision to the Courtof Arbitration for Sport (CAS), thus rendering the decision legally binding.
Imane Khelif initially appealed the decision to CAS but withdrew the appeal during the process, also making the IBA decision legally binding.
Our Committees have rigorously reviewed and endorsed thedecision made during the World Championships. While IBA remains committed toensuring competitive fairness in all of our events, we express concern over theinconsistent application of eligibility criteria by other sportingorganizations, including those overseeing the Olympic Games. The IOC’sdiffering regulations on these matters, in which IBA is not involved, raiseserious questions about both competitive fairness and athletes’ safety.
