It is a great pleasure for me, as president of WBC, to present with our full support the web page of the African Boxing Union, affiliated to our organization since 1974 and from where many outstanding boxers and champions have flourished.
I congratulate the ABU president Mr Houcine Houichi, from Tunisia, the country in which I was elected for the first time in 1975, its vice president Dr. Peter Ngatane, from South Africa, and the ABU Secretary General Celestino Mindra, as well as the presidents of the national boxing federations, for starting this historical internet web page, where we will find all information about boxing in Africa.
With my most sincere best regards.
José Sulaimán
