YEREVAN, MARCH 11, ARMENPRESS: If the Armenian boxers do not
participate in the first European Games taking place in Baku, they
would not get the right to attend the World Championship. The Head
of the Armenian Boxing Federation Arthur Gevorgyan told Armenpress
about it.
"Certainly, it is not preferable to participate in the Baku Games. It
is not preferable for the reason that the sportsmen would not be able
to display their best. By yesterday we had decided not to participate
in the Games but yesterday we got a final decision from the AIBA that
a change had been made and the participation in the Baku Games will
provide us with the right to take part in the World Championship.
Thus, if we do not go to Baku, we will not be able to participate
in the World Championship. In this case we are imposed to do that,
as the participation in the World Championship will provide us with
the ticket to the Rio Games. Things are linked to one another", -
told Arthur Gevorgyan.
