The concept of World Series of Boxing (WSB) was first presented to the boxing family in August 2008 by President, Dr Ching-Kuo Wu. The proposal was met with approval and plans were put in place for this unique competition format. The world’s best boxers, competing in teams, without headguards and using the AIBA Ten Points-Must scoring system, would partake in a global team competition. The origin of WSB marked a new era in the sport of boxing, reuniting the broader boxing world and its grassroots amateur foundation by providing a bridge between Olympic Boxing and a future professional programme within the AIBA family.

TransStadia has signed an exclusive ten-year deal as a franchise owner with World Series of Boxing (WSB), a property owned by International Boxing Association (AIBA), the apex body of the sport worldwide. TransStadia will exclusively represent as a franchise owner for India with team operating out of Mumbai.

The Indian Amateur Boxing Federation (IABF) provided with technical assistance at every level to the franchise. Each franchise in the WSB needs to have a minimum of 10 boxers with at least three from abroad and a maximum of 20 boxers, six of whom need to be foreign ones.
