The Sidelines : IBF to Review Boxing Title Bout
The International Boxing Federation will review the disputed split-decision victory awarded to American Robert Quiroga in a super-flyweight title bout last month, it announced today.
Quiroga retained his title with the victory Jan. 26 over Italian challenger Vincenzo Belcastro in Capo D’Orlando, Sicily.
Belcastro’s manager, Rocco Agostino, called the decision “a scandal.”
In a statement released in Rome, the IBF said a special commission will review a tape of the fight to determine whether the decision was correct.
