*** UPDATE! READ: VENUE CHANGE FOR 2019 WBF CONVENTION ***
It’s that time again…namely time for the next, the fourth, WBF World Convention!
To this effect, the World Boxing Federation (WBF) today announced details. According to WBF Vice President Jean Marcel Nartz, the site will be the Parkhotel in Oberhausen, Germany, a four-star facility which Nartz used many times while working as matchmaker for the now-defunct Universum Box-Promotion.
The event is set for November 7 to November 10 with the highlight, as usual, being the WBF Championship Boxing Night.
“I am sure, Marcel has picked the right location,” explains WBF President Howard Goldberg from his South African office, “because there is nobody in our team who knows better about organizing events like a Convention!”
More info’s will obviously follow, but for now, mark the date and place.
“I am hugely excited to see everyone from the WBF family again in Oberhausen in early November,” said Goldberg.
