Three WBA intercontinental championship belts will be awarded on the night. The event will be accompanied by a news conference, which may feature WBA President and internationally renowned boxing promoter Liu Gang, as well as other key boxing figures.
The WBA believes that Asia is very passionate about boxing, and that putting in the positive efforts to promote and expand in the region is the correct direction.
"The Color World Cup - World Boxing Association World Tour is a competition for the gold championship belt in the truest sense, and we plan to gradually expand the competition to the whole world in the future," said Liu Gang, an internationally renowned boxing promoter and partner of the tournament. "Many of the world's top fighters will join our tournament, which we hope will be a great boost to our boxing culture."
