Dear sports friends,
Since March 1st, 2024, a new WKF Division Worldwide began work.
By athletes
for athletes
The aim is not to compete with existing associations, but rather to complement them with significantly less bureaucracy and fewer annoying, outdated regulations.
In collaboration with all of our 140+ WKF country presidents with the new WKF department “BOXING/BKFC”, we are also internationally networked on 6 continents in over 140 countries.
The Hungarian expert Daniel Z. HIRLAU became world president of the new department since March 1st, 2024.
From now on, ALL BOXERS and BARE KNUCKLE FIGHTERS – women and men – can use our free offer and apply for inclusion in the BOXING World rankings via the FIGHTER PROFILE. Free and non-bureaucratic!
The international WKF license applies to all boxers!
For PROFI boxers, a corresponding license and registration in BOXREC is mandatory! We would be happy to help you with this too.
For example: WKF AUSTRIA has already started nominating a national team – male and female – for amateur boxing in Cartagena, Colombia in November 2026. With the official partner, serious sanctioned by “Austria Boxing Union” !
All registrations and requests should be sent directly to the BOXING head office, Mr. Daniel Z. Hirlau,
by email: wkf-boxing@gmx.at
Anyone with a WKF license and a valid medical certificate is eligible to participate.
If you have any further questions, I will be happy to help you at any time.
