    What a mess with Adonis. I don't know details, but some board members still voted to keep him active..? Surely they must have a good reason :blood

    He made comments in an interview that basically sounded like he wasn't supportive of women's boxing, and then USA Boxing didn't distance themselves quickly enough and like 2-3 people voted to keep him as President for some reason. USA Boxing is a shitshow, the best thing that could happen at this point is for the USOC to suspend USA Boxing's elected leadership and take direct control of the organization.

    I vote they suspend our leadership and replace them with Ukranians or something.

    In what world is the USA a powerhouse in amateur boxing? Yeha, Jose Sulaiman is exactly who we want running amateur boxing.

    Anyway, the suspension was revoked by AIBA after USA Boxing appealed, there's still more stuff coming with USAB's governance though from the USOC.
