Federal Lawsuit Filed this week on BoxRec, the ABC Commission, and more...
April 12, 2022
     
   
   


 

(APR 12) For the past year, WBAN has been reporting to the boxing community the questionable things going on with the “Official Boxing Records site” Boxrec.com, and the ABC Commission, in their practices of not reporting professional bouts for men and women. Even when they were provided videos, photos, proper documentation, and more.

We published several stories about these issues in the last six months or so.  We will list the stories links at the end of this story.

WBAN also has throughout the months accumulated many complaints from the boxing community about what has been going on with BoxRec (now nicknamed BoxWreck, for obvious reasons.)

This week a Federal Lawsuit has been filed against BoxRec, the ABC, and many others listed in the lawsuit. Out of a 102-page lawsuit complaint that was filed, the following are a summary of some of the contents of that lawsuit:

* BoxRec’s failure to enter the results of the fights complained of hereinabove is a violation of the Muhammad Ali Act, its boxing register contract with the ABC and its duty as professional boxing register.

* On information and belief, BoxRec’s sole reason for its refusal to include the results of the said events is arbitrary, capricious, discriminatory, a violation of the Sherman Act as well as the RICO Act as it is in furtherance of a conspiracy centered around and/or originating with MTK Global and its owner, Daniel Kinahan (Read the following).
Treasury Sanctions Notorious Kinahan Organized Crime Group | U.S. Department of the Treasury

* More specifically, BoxRec’s refusal to update Ivana Habazin’s record with the WBC title included is in violation of the ABC’s Official Record Keeper Criteria (hereinafter also referred to the “ABC Criteria”), Rule 15, which provides for Boxing Registry recording of “world title bouts sanctioned by the International Boxing Federation (IBF), World Boxing Association (WBA), World Boxing Council (WBC) and the World Boxing Organization (WBO).”

* Another violation is the refusal of BoxRec to update the records of all of the other European fighters who participated in the Event, including the late Seb Eubank, and the Georgian fighters. Id. ABC’s Official Record Keeper Criteria Rule 14.

* An additional violation is the refusal of BoxRec to update the records of Brazilian fighters (as South Americans) who participated in the Brazil Event, including the Brazilian Olympian fighters (Patrick Lourenco and Michel Borges). Id.

* Yet an additional violation is the refusal of BoxRec to update the records of an American fighter (Layla McCarter) who participated in the Event. Id.

* Another violation is the refusal of the entry of the results of fighters issued a federal identification number by the KSAC (the Brazil Event). See ABC’s Official Record Keeper Criteria Rule 11(g).

* A final violation is the refusal to include the results of ABC member supervised events (the Brazil Event supervised by the KSAC). See ABC’s Official Record Keeper Criteria Rule 3.

* The only fighters possibly not covered by the ABC Criteria’s guidelines are the African fighters. Other than Denes, who is African, all other results should have been recorded and are only not record because of BoxRec’s bad faith, its collusion with Mendy’s competitors, its failure to follow the ABC Criteria as well as other rules and regulations applicable to boxing registers, on belief and information, all in furtherance of the conspiracy to teach Mendy a lesson and suppress his rise and the rise of his business, Lion Heart Boxing Productions.

WBAN will keep boxing fans updated on this Federal Lawsuit as we learn more details.
