Eight years ago, Mauricio Sulaiman became WBC President

It’s been eight years since Mauricio Sulaiman Saldivar was elected President of the World Boxing Council, following the passing of our beloved Don José Sulaimán, who led the WBC for thirty-eight years with tenacity, pride and love.

Mauricio received 26 votes and the trust from the members of Board of Governors from all over the World, being unanimously elected as WBC President on that historic day.

“We’re going to do the very best for Boxing. We will continue with my Dad’s plans and keep improving The Sport,” Mauricio promised that morning and he`s kept his word.

Today, with the same exemplary values which Don José promoted, striving with commitment, honesty, responsibility, respect, solidarity loyalty and friendship, Mauricio continues to work tirelessly to improve Boxing, consolidating and advancing the WBC as the most important sanctioning body  in the entire world.

The WBC family celebrates with great pride the eight anniversary of our Leader Mauricio Sulaiman.

Congratulations, Mauricio!
