This one paragraph says volumes, imo:

The IBA was recognised by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) as the international governing body for the sport of boxing until 2019, when the IOC suspended its recognition of the federation; in 2023, the IOC formally stripped the IBA of its status, becoming the first international federation to ever be expelled from the Olympic movement. The IOC's decision was upheld by the Court of Arbitration for Sport in 2024.

In other words, IBA's opinion ain't worth shit!
