International Testing Authority (ITA)

The International Testing Agency (ITA), on behalf of the International Boxing Association (IBA), reports that Kazakh boxer Dulat Bekbauov has been sanctioned with a two-year period of ineligibility for an anti-doping rule violation (ADRV).

The ITA confirms that boxer athlete Dulat Bekbauov has been sanctioned with a 2-year period of ineligibility for an anti-doping rule violation (ADRV) under article 2.4 of the IBA anti-doping rules (IBA ADR) ¹ as the athlete committed three whereabouts failures within a 12-month period.

The athlete did not challenge the ADRV. Pursuant to Article 8.3.3 of the IBA ADR, the ITA issued a sanctioning decision² imposing the applicable consequences, namely a period of ineligibility of two years from 18 November 2025 until 17 November 2027 and disqualification of the athlete’s individual results from 1 January 2025 onwards.

The decision is subject to appeal before the appeal division of CAS in accordance with Article 13.2.3 of the IBA ADR.

The ITA will not comment further on this case.
