Several countries are boycotting the World Cup because of the participation of Russians and Belarusians in it. The International Boxing Association (IBA) has launched a disciplinary case against the heads of the national federations of the countries who decided to skip the tournament. The case was opened against the heads of the associations of the United States, Canada, Sweden, the Czech Republic and New Zealand.
On October 5, the IBA allowed boxers from Russia and Belarus to participate in international competitions under the auspices of the organization. Athletes are allowed to compete under national flags, and if they win, the national anthem will be played.
