WKF BOXING / BKFC – new World division
Dear sports friends,
On March 1, 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with existing associations, but rather to complement them with significantly less bureaucracy and fewer annoying, outdated regulations.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 nations.
The Hungarian expert Daniel Z. HIRLAU will become world president of the new division from March 1st, 2024.
From now on, ALL BOXERS – 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.
The first amateur BOXING tournament will take place on April 26th/27th in Innsbruck, at the same time as the WKF Austrian Open in kickboxing.
All registrations should be sent directly to the BOXING head office, Mr. 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.

respectfully greetings
Daniel Z. HIRLAU
WKF BOXING / BKFC
World Championships in Spain !
November 18th to November 22nd
An excerpt from our WKF statutes and bylaws has been valid for more than 20 years
WKF’s aim was and always will be to enjoy the sport of Kickboxing, Boxing and all martial arts as an international sport, without discrimination over nationality, race or ethnic origin.
The WKF head office strongly believes in and upholds an Equal Rights Policy with all its members and those who wish to participate in it. With such a policy we here, at WKF wish to create a friendly and welcoming environment for everyone to enjoy the sport of kickboxing, Boxing, MMA and martial arts in any form and manner.
Sport has no racial, social or political barriers, which means that it is the perfect way for all men and women, boys and girls to achieve amazing results, regardless of race, creed or colour.
The opportunity to represent one’s country in the name of sport at an international level is probably one of the greatest achievements an individual can make.
The pressure that the competitors have at this level is enormous, and goes far beyond normal physical endurance.
To win, especially at such a high level, competitors will have to tap into inner resources that their years of training will have prepared them for
ВСЕРОССИЙСКАЯ ФЕДЕРАЦИЯ КИКБОКСИНГА
КОНТАКТЫ: WKFRUSSIA@GMAIL.COM
Выдержка из нашего устава WKF за более чем 20 лет!
Международная федерация кикбоксинга (ВКФ / WKF) придерживается принципа равных возможностей для спортсменов независимо от пола, цвета кожи, религии, политических взглядов и места жительства.
В этом виде спорта нет расовых, социальных или политических барьеров, а это означает, что это идеальный путь для всех детей, взрослых, ветеранов и ремесленников к достижению потрясающих результатов, независимо от расы, вероисповедания или цвета кожи.
Возможность представлять свою страну на международном уровне во имя спорта, вероятно, является одним из величайших достижений человечества.

We have same system like in other pro sport in WKF.
We offer the chance to fight in all 4 ring sport divisions for the sought after WKF PRO AM champion belts. In full contact, low kick, K-1 and Thai Boxing as well as in MMA and SANDA for amateurs.
Our WKF PRO AM titles has a great value because of our World wide network with more than 140 member countries you have the chance to fight not only at home. And no fighter will lose his/her amateur status , he/she can fight still on any tournament, any World Championship World wide. And you can be sure just to face another amateur fighter with perhaps 15 to 20 fights and not real pro with more than 100 fights.
The rules and regulations for PRO AM are easy to understand and waiting for your download All you have to do is just send your fighter profile and jpg photo like always and we post your team online in the PRO AM World ranking.

World referee seminar in Alicante, November 17th !
Our last World referee seminar´s 2022 in Wels, Austria and 2023 in Skofije, Slovenia and in Buenos Aires 2023 appointed several female WKF referees with international licenses. Today we again have 11 women worldwide with an international WKF referee license.
History has shown that nothing is set in stone.
As the world know – our next World referee seminar will be held in Spain, November 2024, just before the WKF World Championships.
The next but one World referee seminar will be held now in autumn 2025, the weekend just before the European Championships 2025 .
Without valid WKF license you are not an official in our World Kickboxing Federation!!
Today WKF has more than 100 international licensed referees on 6 continents.
Of these, unfortunately, we only have just
eleven (!) international licensed female officials.
Like all knowledge, more and more strong female champions and athletes are fighting
Our executive board therefore emphatically requests all WKF country presidents to send more female referees to Spain, the next seminar in November 2024.
It’s in your hands and
we just need
more female officials
