NEW DELHI: The IBA women’s World Championships, starting next week, will not be counted as the main qualifying event for Paris Games 2024 because the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and International Boxing Association (IBA) failed to reach a consensus regarding the qualification status of the biennial event.
Last month, the IBA, the sport’s global governing body, had announced that both the New Delhi women’s Worlds and the men’s World Championships in Tashkent later in May will be the qualifying events for Paris.
