News Summary:

The World Boxing Council (WBC) on July 1, 2026, announced a collaboration with NAS Medical to enhance boxer health, safety, welfare, and medical governance, reflecting its commitment to high standards of medical care and athlete protection. Previously, on June 22, the WBC reaffirmed the guidelines of its Clean Boxing Program (CBP), an initiative launched in 2016 and extended to the women's division in 2019, which seeks to eradicate prohibited substances and prioritize athlete safety. Earlier in June, on the 17th, discussions centered on a potential heavyweight title fight between Oleksandr Usyk and WBC mandatory challenger Agit Kabayel, with Derek Chisora suggesting the bout would only happen if promoter Frank Warren offered a premium payment. This followed news from June 15, when Tyson Fury advised his brother Tommy Fury to pursue the WBC cruiserweight title after his win against Eddie Hall. On the same day, Agit Kabayel emerged as a possible opponent for Tyson Fury, should his anticipated bout against Anthony Joshua not proceed.
