PanARMENIAN.Net - By decision of President of Armenia's National
Olympic Committee Gagik Tsarukyan, Yerevan-hosted international boxing
tournament would henceforth honor the memory of the Olympic champion
Vladimir Yengibaryan.
In a conversation with a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter, vice-president of
Armenian Boxing Federation Derenik Gabrielyan said, the championship
won't be held in 2013 due to the timing of the European boxing
championship, due April 30-May 9 in Minsk, Belarus.
"Boxers from at least 19 countries must participate in tournament A.
However, changes have occurred in the training programs of European
championships, with the cut in the number of participants to adversely
affect our tournament," Mr Gabrielyan said, adding that Armenian
tournament may be held in fall.
