On March 1, 2024, a new WKF Division Worldwide began work.
By athletes – for athletes!
The aim is not to compete with existing associations, but rather to complement them with significantly less bureaucracy and fewer annoying, outdated regulations.
In collaboration with all of our 140 + WKF country presidents with the new WKF department “BOXING / BKFC / MMA”, we are also internationally networked on 6 continents in over 140 nations.
The Hungarian expert Daniel Z. HIRLAU became world president of the new division from March 1st, 2024.
From now on, ALL BOXERS – women and men – can use our free offer and apply for inclusion in the BOXING World rankings via the FIGHTER PROFILE. Free and non-bureaucratic!
The international WKF license applies to all boxers!
For PROFI boxers, a corresponding license and registration in BOXREC is mandatory! We would be happy to help you with this too.
All registrations should be sent directly to the BOXING / BKFC / MMA head office, Mr. Hirlau,

When does the timer start e.g. for traditional forms with and without weapons ?
Any traditional form / Kata / Taoluetc. can be customized, but it still has to be recognizable.
