The website of the Ukrainian federation reports this.
“We have sent an official application to the European Boxing Confederation to host the European Championship. This year the tournament will be held in June, so we have enough time to organize and conduct competitions at the highest level. Voting for the host country of the competition will take place in the near future, and we hope that Kharkov will be given this right. We already have experience in holding the World Youth Boxing Championship, the European Junior Championships, the European Cup, we organized the World Series of Boxing competitions, so I am convinced that everything will be held at the highest level,” said Vladimir Prodivus, President of the Ukrainian Boxing Federation.
Let us add that other competitors for hosting the European Championship are Russia and Türkiye. The competitions themselves are scheduled for July 2017.
