ABOUT US

WBC Ukraine

The World Boxing Council (WBC) — the most prestigious boxing organization in the world — was founded in 1963 in Mexico City. The organization is currently led by Mauricio Sulaimán, who was unanimously elected as WBC President in 2014 following the passing of his father, Don José Sulaimán. Don José served as the organization’s president for 36 years (from 1975 until his death) and is still highly respected for the many positive changes he brought to professional boxing under his leadership.
