WHEREAS, on February 18th 2019, official boxing reports confirmed that Ms. Nicola Adams had suffered an injury during her training preparations causing the postponement of the
scheduled March 8th 2019 WBO Female Flyweight bout; and,

WHEREAS, in light of Ms. Adams’ unavailability due to the suffered injury, Ms. Muciño successfully defended her WBO Female Flyweight Championship Title against Ms. Yairineth Altuve on April 13th 2019 (10-2-0) winning via unanimous decision (UD); bout held at the Arena Monterrey, Monterrey, Mexico; and,

WHEREAS, on July 15th 2019, this Committee issued an official “Show Cause” letter to Ms. Muciño through her promotional representatives “Zanfer Promotions” indicating that in light
of her injury and unavailability to comply with her mandatory obligation as ordered by this Committee against Ms. Nicola Adams on September 21st 2019, the WBO World Championship Committee should declare the WBO Female Flyweight Championship Title “Vacant”. Conversely, this Committee flatly rejected the WBO Female Champion “In Recess” request made by Mr. Brito on behalf of “Zanfer Promotions”; and,

WHEREAS, the World Boxing Organization does not recognize “Champion in Recess” status in none of the WBO weight divisions, however, this Committee recommended “Zanfer Promotions” upon Ms. Muciño’s official return to active competition, filing an official Mandatory Challenger designation request in the upcoming WBO Convention to be held in Tokyo, Japan, from December 2nd through December 6th 2019; and,

WHEREAS, in our “Show Cause” letter issued to Ms. Muciño’s promotional representatives, we cited the applicable WBO Rules and Regulations in light of Ms. Muciño injury, unavailability to participate in active competition and therefore, unable to comply with our order and rules and regulations; Specifically, sections (a) and (b) respectively, of the WBO Female Regulations of World Championship Contests state as follows:

(a) “Every female Champion recognized by the World Boxing Organization, must make a mandatory defense of her Title every six (6) months, against the highest available and willing contender. The Championship Committee may order within each six (6) months to defend the title against an opponent to be accepted by the committee. If the Champion wishes to defend her title between mandatory defenses, she may do so against any rated boxer with the approval of the Championship Committee.”

(b) “When a female World Champion recognized by the World Boxing Organization, fails to comply with her obligation to defend her Title on the date indicated by the Championship Committee, the Title in her division will be declared Vacant.”

WHEREAS, Section 19 (b) (c) (f), respectively, of the WBO Regulations of World Championship Contests states as follows:

(b) However, if the Champion is unable to defend his Championship within the time periods provided in these Rules because he is physically disabled for a justified cause, and said disability has been verified and accepted by the World Championship Committee, the Champion may be granted a reasonable time to recover from the disability extension and retrain to competitive condition, which shall not in total exceed 180 days.”

(c) “A disability extension shall be approved by only the vote of the World Championship Committee. If the Champion’s recover time exceeds the maximum term of the disability extension, or if upon receipt of an interim medical certification the World Championship Committee determines that the Champion is not reasonably likely to recover and be prepared to defend his Championship within the term of the disability extension, the title shall be declared “Vacant” …..

(f) “In any of the above-mentioned circumstances, a former Champion must meet the WBO and ABC Rating Criteria to be classified.”

Furthermore, the Association Boxing Commission (ABC) sets forth the following recommendation in section 2:

2. “There should be no “interim” champions. If a champion is injured and thus cannot meet the boxer’s obligation to defend, the next two highest rated boxers shall compete for the title. Once the injured champion is ready, that boxer shall be the mandatory challenger for the new champion”.

WHEREAS, our “Show Cause” letter issued to “Zanfer Promotions” promotional representative of Ms. Muciño granted ten (10) days to present their respective arguments as to why this Committee should not strip Ms. Muciño of her the WBO Female Flyweight Championship and elevate Ms. Adams from Interim Female Flyweight Champion accordingly; and,

WHEREAS, the established period set forth in our “Show Cause” letter elapsed without any appearance and/or arguments submitted by the affected WBO Participant Ms. Muciño on behalf of her promotional representatives, this Committee proceeded accordingly; and,

WHEREAS, it should be noted that Ms. Muciño’s last successful title defense was held on April 13th 2019, against Ms. Yairineth Altuve, and considering Ms. Muciño’s possible return date for the month of November 2019, the mandatory defense obligation time period set forth in our WBO Female Rules and Regulations exceeds thereto.

WHEREAS, counting from the date of Ms. Muciño’s last title defense on April 13th 2019, until her preliminary return date for active training on November 2019, two-hundred-three (203) days will have elapsed in contravention with our WBO Female Rules and Regulations and therefore, failure of the WBO Champion to comply with her Mandatory Challenger obligations; and,

WHEREAS, in light of Ms. Muciño unavailability to comply with this Committee’s order regarding the WBO Female Flyweight Championship Contests between the latter and Ms. Adams, scheduled for September 21st 2019, Mr. Andy Ayling of “Queensberry Promotions” on behalf of WBO Female Interim Flyweight Champion Ms. Nicola Adams, officially requested be elevated to WBO Female Flyweight Champion accordingly; and,

WHEREAS, this Committee having evaluated Ms. Muciño’s medical certification confirming an ankle injury, having considered she is unfit and therefore, unable to comply with her mandatory defense obligation as ordered by this Committee, and in light of the extensive recovery period for active training preliminary scheduled for month of November 2019, and pursuant with our WBO Female and WBO Rules and Regulations of World Championship Contests, and with the authority to resolve any and all matters with the following being within our powers and discretion, and interpreted to include any or all powers necessary, helpful or convenient to accomplish the purpose, policies and the intent of these rules; and,

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the WBO Championship Committee pursuant to the WBO Regulations of World Championship Contests as follows:

The WBO World Championship Committee hereby elevates Ms. Nicola Adams from WBO Female Interim Flyweight Champion to WBO Female Flyweight Champion status without undermining Ms. Mucino’s right to request official mandatory challenger designation in the aforementioned division upon her return to active competition.

This is a final decision of the WBO Championship Committee. The affected WBO participant may appeal such determination to the Complaint and Grievance Committee as per Rule 34, which as per Rule 3(e) of the WBO Appeals Regulation, must be submitted in writing to the WBO President within fourteen (14) days of this decision as its sole and exclusive remedy.

190724 CC Notice of Purse Bid – Valdez vs. Stevenson View PDF

The present ruling stems from this Committee’s “Resolution” issued on Saturday, July 6th 2019, regarding an official complaint filed on Monday, June 17th 2019, by Promoter Mr. Andrew
Wasilewski on behalf of WBO Participant Mr. Krzysztof Glowacki concerning the WBO Jr. Heavyweight Championship Contest against Mr. Mairis Briedis held on Saturday, June 15th 2019, at the Arena Riga, Latvia, as part of the World Boxing Super Series (WBSS) Tournament Semi-Finals. This Committee ruled that though the resolution of said contest was substantially irregular the World Boxing Organization (WBO) was impaired to terminate, reverse or overturn the official bout result (TKO) due to lack of subject matter jurisdiction and such ruling lies within the jurisdiction of the local boxing commission the Latvia Boxing Federation (LBF). Lastly, this Committee set forth a forty-eight (48) hour deadline whereby the World Boxing Super Series (WBSS) Tournament Officials determine whether they accept or reject our ruling.

The WBO World Championship Committee having reviewed the referenced “Resolution”, having examined our WBO Rules and Regulations, their applicability, and enforcement in this matter, and having been fully advised in the premises, it is hereby determined as follows:

WHEREAS, on Monday, June 17th 2019, the WBO acknowledge receipt of email communication whereby Promoter Mr. Andrew Wasilewski on behalf of WBO Participant Glowacki filed an official complaint via email regarding the WBO Jr. Heavyweight Championship Contest against WBO Participant Briedis in light of the numerous error executed by the appointed referee during the bout and consequently, requested WBO Participant Briedis be disqualified and suspended. Lastly, requested that the official bout result be reversed and declared as a “No Contest”; and,

WHEREAS, on Friday, June 21st 2019, this Committee issued an official notice via email to all WBO Participants (Team Glowacki, Team Briedis, World Boxing Super Series Tournament (WBSS) Officials and the Latvian Boxing Federation) ordering all parties to submit no later than Monday, July 1st 2019, no later than 4:00 p.m. EST, any statements, affidavits, reports, summaries, compilations, press reports, or other evidence or documents which the affected WBO participants want the Committee to consider. The submittal requested including a clear and specific summary of response to it, reasons and arguments upon which it is based, with a clear statement from the Complainant of the relief the complainant sought and from whom and a response on behalf of Mairis Briedis to that complaint and the relief sought on behalf of Krzyzstof Glowacki, and shall have attached clear and legible copies of all documents, reports, precedents or other materials relevant to the request; and,

WHEREAS, on Thursday, June 27th 2019, the WBO acknowledge receipt of email communication by Promoter Mr. Andrew Wasilewski on behalf of WBO Participant Glowacki whereby he requested an additional one-week extension to comply with our June 21st 2019 order. This Committee granted said request and set forth a final submittal deadline for July 3rd 2019 at 4:00 p.m. EST; and,

WHEREAS, on Wednesday, July 3rd 2019, the WBO acknowledge receipt of email communication by Mr. Jacek Szelagowski on behalf of Promoter Wasilewski on behalf of WBO Participant Glowacki. Mr. Szelagowski sought WBO Participant Briedis be disqualified for the admitted deliberate and intentional illegal elbow committed against WBO Participant Glowacki and that such action ultimately led to the end of the bout in benefit of WBO Participant Briedis. Further argued that even if WBO Participant Briedis is not disqualified for the intentional elbow, he should be disqualified for actions in knocking WBO Participant Glowacki down again almost a full 10 seconds after the bell ending round 2, or for his corner being in the ring before the knockdown even if the punch after the bell was somehow ruled to be legal; and,

WHEREAS, all interested parties submitted their respective arguments and positions, all of which were carefully examined, reviewed and considered by this Committee accordingly; and,

WHEREAS, on Saturday, July 6th 2019, this Committee issued “Resolution” notifying all relevant parties whereby it determined that the proper forum with jurisdiction and authority to terminate, reverse or overturn the official bout result lied within the local boxing commission. Furthermore, ruled that the applicable rules and regulations governing the referenced contest are the World Boxing Super Series (WBSS) and therefore, the WBO Regulations of World Championship Contests applied supplementary. Lastly, the ruling strongly recommended that the winner of the “WBSS” Finals between IBF Jr. Heavyweight Champion Mr. Yuniel Dorticos and WBO Jr. Heavyweight Champion Mr. Mairis Briedis face WBO Participant and complainant Mr. Krzysztof Glowacki within one-hundred twenty (120) days following the completion of said tournament; and,

WHEREAS, Saturday, July 6th 2019, the WBO confirmed receipt of email communication by Mr. Chris Meyer on behalf of Comosa AG promotional company of the referenced tournament requesting a forty-eight (48) hour extension in order to examine and discuss this Committee’s ruling accordingly; and,

WHEREAS, Tuesday, July 9th 2019, the WBO confirmed receipt of an official letter issued by the President of the Latvia Boxing Federation (LBF) Mr. Andrey Akhmedov advising that neither Mr. Briedis nor Mr. Glowacki was licensed by said commission. Furthermore, rejected any responsibility with respect to the outcome of the WBO Jr.Heavyweight Championship Contest between the participants stated herein; and,

WHEREAS, Tuesday, July 9th 2019, the WBO President submitted a replied letter to the “LBF” President Mr. Akhmedov and advised that as of matter of Law, the WBO lacked subject matter jurisdiction to terminate, reverse or overturn the official bout result held under the jurisdiction and authority of the local boxing commission (LBF). Moreover, clarified that though the WBO Regulations of World Championship Contests governed the foregoing bout, it is the local boxing commission’s function to conduct and administer all professional boxing matches and therefore, they bear jurisdiction; and,

WHEREAS, on Monday, July 15th 2019, issued a final deadline to the “WBSS” Tournament officials whereby no later than Tuesday, July 16th 2019, no later than 4:00p.m. said officials accept or reject this Committee’s ruling dated Saturday, July 6th 2019; and,

WHEREAS, on Tuesday, July 16th 2019, the WBO confirmed receipt of email communication by Mr. Chris Meyer on behalf of the “WBSS” whereby confirming acceptance of this Committee’s ruling recommending the winner of said tournament facing Mr. Glowacki within the following one-hundred twenty (120) days; and,

WHEREAS, in light of the World Boxing Super Series Tournament officials’ accepting this Committee’s ruling, we strongly recommend the WBO Ratings Committee installing Mr. Glowacki at the number one (1) position in the WBO Jr. Heavyweight World Ratings for the month of July 2019 accordingly; and,

WHEREAS, this Committee adopts by reference any and all the conditions set forth in our July 6th 2019, “Resolution”; and

WHEREAS, this Committee bears authority and jurisdiction pursuant with the WBO Regulations of World Championship Contests to include any and all powers necessary
to accomplish the conditions set forth in our original “Resolution”; and,

WHEREAS, in accordance with our WBO Regulations of World Championship Contests specifically, Section. 1 (b), (c), respectively, in relevant, state as follows:

(b) The World Championship Committee shall have the following powers and discretion:
(c) “The above powers shall be interpreted to include any and all powers necessary, helpful or convenient to accomplish the purposes, policies and intent of these rules.”

WHEREAS, pursuant with the powers afforded to this Committee by our WBO Regulations of World Championship Contests and in accordance with the conditions set forth in our “Resolution” dated Saturday, July 6th 2019, this Committee determines that said ruling if final definitive and enforceable; and,

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the WBO Championship Committee pursuant to the WBO Regulations of World Championship Contests as follows:

The WBO World Championship Committee hereby orders that the winner of the World Boxing Super Series Tournament (WBSS) finals between IBF Jr. Heavyweight Champion Mr. Yuniel Dorticos and WBO Jr. Heavyweight Champion Mr. Mairis Briedis must face WBO Participant Mr. Krzysztof Glowacki within one-hundred twenty days (120) after the competition of said tournament.

Countries or Regions that require a Visa to Enter Japan: China, Russia, CIS Countries, Georgia, Philippines, Viet Nam.

Dear Convention Attendees,

We are excited about this year’s convention. Last year at the culmination of our convention in Panama the Japan Boxing Commission (JBC) requested to the executive committee for our 2019 convention to be held in Tokyo, Japan. The measure was seconded and ultimately voted unanimously. Japan has a rich culture of architecture structures along with outstanding garden architectural sites. It has also unique traditional Japanese wood sculptures of Buddhist images. Wood is golden in Japan, it is traditionally used as chief material for sculptures and traditional Japanese architecture.

I encourage you to visit unique sites while in Tokyo, for example, the Kanda Shrine, located in downtown Chiyuda-Ku. It is well known that the Kami (good spirits) enshrined there are the two of the Seven Gods of Fortune. Most people visit to reflect and pray for wealth and success in business

With that said, the dates have been finalized and we are ready to start the journey towards Tokyo.

The host hotel will be the iconic Tokyo Dome Hotel, the hotel is located in the heart of the city, its surrounded by great restaurants and by the famous Tokyo Dome, home of the Tokyo Giants, Japan’s biggest professional baseball team, known as the New York Yankees of the East. Most important the Tokyo Dome also served as home to the biggest upsets in boxing history, on February 11, 1990 Mike Tyson, a 42-1 favorite, lost by knock out to James Buster Douglas ending his undefeated record hence losing the world title.

The convention will commence on Monday, December 2nd 2019 and culminate on Thursday, December 5th 2019, Friday will be check out.

Space is extremely limited, we will start taking hotel reservations on May 1st 2019 at our WBO offices, the cost will be $200 per night up to double occupancy. No more than two person per room is allowed. We also encourage for for all attendees to register early for the convention we are expecting a major turn and I would not like for anyone to be left out.

Thank you all for your continuing support and I will see you in Tokyo.

Domo Arigato, (Thank you)

(A) It is the policy of the World Boxing Organization to encourage its Champions to pursue recognized status as Undisputed World Champions and unify the Championships of the four major world sanctioning organizations (the WBO, WBA, WBC and IBF). A World Champion who has achieved preeminent status may require and be entitled to additional scheduling flexibility to achieve his place in boxing history and for the good of the sport. A boxer may be considered for designation of Super Champion status when he meets the following criteria:

a) This Committee hereby recommends to the WBO Executive Committee granting Mr. Oleksandr Usyk designation of WBO Super Champion status.

NAPA DRIVE GURNEE, ILLINOIS 60031

TO: WORLD BOXING ORGANIZATION

PRESIDENT FRANCISCO VALCARCEL CHAMPIONSHIP COMMITTEE

RE: WBO CRUISERWEIGHT SUPER CHAMPION

OLEKSANDR USYK

DATE: 2 JUNE 2019

VIA E-MAIL

Dear President Valcarcel and Members of the Championship Committee:

As you are aware, my office represents the interests of WBO Cruiserweight Super Champion Oleksandr Usyk and Team Usyk. Mr. Usyk has requested that my office contact the WBO in order to communicate his intentions moving forward and to make a request per the Regulations of the World Boxing Organization.

REQUEST OF WBO SUPER CHAMPION OLEKSANDR USYK: THAT THE WBO OFFICIALLY DESIGNATE WBO CRUISERWEIGHT SUPER CHAMPION OLEKSANDR USYK AS THE MANDATORY CHALLENGER IN THE IMMEDIAITE HIGHER WEIGHT CLASS – HEAVYWEIGHT.

HISTORY

Oleksandr Usyk is proud to have unified the Cruiserweight titles as he defeated all opponents on his way to winning the WBSS Cruiserweight Tournament and the Ali Trophy. Unification of all of the titles is all too rare these days, giving the fans clarity once and for all who is the best boxer in the division. Usyk is thankful to the WBSS, all of the organizations and all of the boxers who took part in the tournament as well as those who enabled the tournament to serve to determine that Oleksandr Usyk was the true and deserving undisputed champion of the Cruiserweight Division.

In light of the length and quality of Usyk’s reign as WBO Champion, his unification of the Cruiserweight Titles via the WBSS Tournament, and his incredible amateur record, which included an Olympic Gold Medal, the WBO acknowledged Usyk as having Super Champion

status when President Valcarcel personally presented him with his Super Champion belt in the ring just prior to the Joshua v Povetkin bout in Wembley Stadium, London, in 2018.

AUTHORITY

As WBO Cruiserweight Super Champion, Oleksandr Usyk hereby requests that the WBO, per Section 14 of the Regulations, officially designate Oleksandr Usyk as the Mandatory Challenger in the Heavyweight Division. Usyk hereby confirms that he intends to fight his next contest in the Heavyweight Division.

Section 14 provides:

ELIGIBILITY TO BE CONSIDERED FOR DESIGNATION AS THE MANDATORY CHALLENGER IN HIGHER OR LOWER DIVISION.

If requested by a Super Champion, the Championship Committee may designate the Super Champion as the mandatory challenger for the immediate higher or lower division.

ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS

Since current champion status is not required to remain a Super Champion per Section 14, Mr. Usyk further notifies the WBO that he formally relinquishes the WBO Cruiserweight Championship but will continue to reign as Super Champion. This will enable other boxers to enjoy the prestige and benefits of being the WBO World Champion in the Cruiserweight division as Usyk seek to conquer the Heavyweight Division per his mandatory status.

CONCLUSION

Thank you for giving the above your immediate attention. Oleksandr Usyk wishes to thank the WBO for all that it has done for him during his career and has been proud to continue to represent the WBO as Super Champion.

We thank you in advance for giving this request prompt consideration and reply.

Best regards,

John R. Hornewer
