The EBU has a new president

The European Boxing Union (EBU) held its general assembly in Riga, Latvia this weekend and elected a new President, Peter Stucka from Switzerland. He was the only candidate after incumbent Bob Logist withdrew his candidacy.

A few decades ago, becoming a European champion was the limit for a European boxer, but today's promoters and their players have a lot more options and little to no consideration for EBU titles, which usually means a tough fight for less money than can be earned in fights for major championship titles. world versions.

Many also point out the presence of internal divisions and problems in the EBU, so it can be assumed that Stuki has a lot of work to do, although the title of the Union is still one of the fairly prestigious titles in Europe with a long history since 1948.
