WBA Asia

WBA Asia is a regional boxing organization affiliated with the World Boxing Association (WBA), one of the four major organizations that sanction professional boxing bouts worldwide. WBA Asia sanctions and oversees boxing matches across the Asian continent, awarding regional titles that serve as a stepping stone for fighters aiming to compete for world championships recognized by the WBA.

The organization's primary function is to promote boxing within Asia by establishing rules and regulations, ensuring fair competition, and providing a platform for Asian boxers to develop and showcase their talent. Winning a WBA Asia title can significantly enhance a boxer's ranking and visibility, making them eligible for higher-profile fights and potentially a shot at the WBA world title.

WBA Asia, like the WBA itself, has various committees and officials responsible for different aspects of boxing regulation, including sanctioning, refereeing, judging, and medical supervision. The organization works to maintain safety standards and uphold the integrity of the sport. The specific countries and territories encompassed within the "Asia" designation by WBA Asia can vary and are subject to the organization's definitions and operational scope.
