WKF BOXING / BKFC – new World division
TOP NEWS:
Amateur Boxing is also in Cartagena, Colombia for the World Championships 2026

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with existing associations, but rather to complement them with significantly less bureaucracy and fewer annoying, outdated regulations.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.
Daniel Z. HIRLAU magyar szakértőt nevezték ki az új tanszék világelnökévé 2024. március 1-jétől.
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.

Daria KUVAKINA / RUS new PRO World Champion

Perm in Russia at the foot of the high Ural Mountains hosted a historic PRO World title fight in Featherweight -58,2 Kg / 128 lbs between two strong Amazons in K-1.
From the Uruguayan capital Montevideo came the No. 1 from Latin America Marilyn CONTIN.
Her opponent Daria KUVAKINA was on the recommendation of the Russian WKF representative FKR (фкр) and the WKF General Secretary Roman LOGISCH from Germany.

An absolute world championship title fight, truly worthy of the name!
Two Amazons showed their sporting skills, always fair and always correct. Many of the “Internet super champions” from smaller no name associations could take a leaf out of these ladies’ book!
WKF neutral Supervisor Mr. Igor BAYBARA from Sofia, Bulgaria, has done an excellent job and has already confirmed the result and the great hospitality of the Russian organizers.
Story already on russia.wkfworld.com international!
История уже на международном сайте russia.wkfworld.com!
In the first rounds, there were slight advantages for Kuvakina, which three neutral judges gave points for one fighter or the other.
In the fifth and final round, the Russian girl landed a stunning spinning back kick, forcing Contin to the ground and requiring a count by the referee.
Hence the logical unanimous decision for Daria Kuvakina
