No boxing league allowed, PBF
PBF is committed to take measure against such fallacy.
LAHORE (APP):Lt Col Muhammad Nasir Ijaz Tung Secretary Pakistan Boxing Federation said on Monday it has not allowed any boxing league in the country. “There have been certain reports regarding holding of a boxing league in Pakistan. For record, no league has been allowed by PBF.
In fact PBF has neither officially or informally received any request by any individual or organization to conduct a national or international Boxing league.
He said the reports, that PBF has allowed conduct of a league, are baseless and misleading therefore all concerned are requested to ensure they don’t fall prey to such hoax as PBF will not be liable for any arrangements made due to such misrepresentation.
“PBF is committed to take measure against such fallacy and urges to share information regarding these perpetrators to be dealt in accordance with the prevailing laws”, said the PBF official.
He said PBF will hold league as per its constitution to benefit elite and young pugilists but not for vested and financial interests of few.
“All the events in Pakistan will be governed by AIBA Rules including but not limited to WADA rules, to protect our pugilists from scandalous and misleading elements who are only seeking financial and personal benefits instead of promotion of Boxing in Pakistan”, he asserted.
