ABU DHABI: The UAE Boxing Federation, in coordination with the Indian Boxing Federation and the International Boxing Association (AIBA), will host the Asian Boxing Championship on 21st May in Dubai.
The championship was set to be held in the Indian capital, New Delhi, on the same date, but the coronavirus (COVID-19) situation in India prevented the event from taking place.
The UAE Boxing Federation subsequently offered to host the event, and both the General Authority for Sports and the Asian Boxing Federation welcomed the move.
