Membership listing

In 1982, Herb Goldman and John Grasso co-founded the International Boxing Research Organization (IBRO) for the purposes of establishing an accurate history of boxing and compiling complete and accurate boxing records. The membership consists of individuals with an interest in boxing and boxing research with varying degrees of expertise. Some of the members make their living from the boxing business, but most are fans with collections of boxing records and other material on boxing.
 
IBRO exists to provide a vehicle for individuals interested in boxing research to communicate these interests; to facilitate their research; to coordinate research activities and provide a means of meeting others who share these specialized interests.

Boxing is a sport that has worldwide popularity at both the amateur and professional levels. However, accurate historical records are sorely lacking. It is intended that through IBRO an accurate collection, organization and dissemination of information about the sport will occur.
 
Since its inception, IBRO has had four Directors: John Grasso, 1982-1988; Tim Leone, 1988-1994; International Boxing Hall of Fame (IBHOF) Inductee Ralph Citro; 1994-2000; and Dan Cuoco, 2000 to the present.
 
The Director of IBRO publishes four journals per year containing career records and fight information for champions, contenders, and other fighters of interest as well as articles and rare facts and figures related to boxing. And now with the advent of the Internet it is a truly interactive research and reference source.

Among the research discoveries of IBRO’s membership are: an additional 13 bouts for Mickey Walker, 4 additional knockouts for Archie Moore (increasing his record for most knockouts), and extensive work on flyweight champion Jimmy Wilde’s early record to bring his lifetime knockout record to from 77 to 100. Members have also done extensive work in amateur boxing research with a complete record of all Olympic Games bouts up to the 1980 Games included among their accomplishments.
 
Back issues of IBRO Journals/newsletters are sold only to members. The newsletters/Journals are not in a magazine format, but made up of individual articles, fighter career records, additions and corrections to existing records, statistics, microfilm newsclips, etc.

2007 annual membership dues are $57.00 for members residing in the United States and $76.00 for members residing outside the United States. Checks are payable to ---
