Massachusetts Regulators Remove Controversial Boxing Association From Sports Betting Catalogue

A controversial boxing association and its sanctioned events have been stripped from the sports betting catalogue.

The Massachusetts Gaming Commission unanimously agreed to remove the International Boxing Association (IBA) and any of its event from the Massachusetts sports betting catalogue due to the commission s policy to disallow wagers on any event or league overseen by a Russian or Belarusian governing body or body headquartered in Russia or Belarus.

The IBA is headquartered in Lausanne, Switzerland, but has moved most of its operations to Russia since the Dec. 12, 2020, election of current IBA President Umar Kremlev.
