Quienes somos?

La Federación Centroamericana de Boxeo (Fecarbox) fue la primera en su clase, fundada a mediados de los anos 70s, como una iniciativa del mexicano José Sulaimán, cuando se posesiona como presidente del Consejo Mundial de Boxeo (CMB). Su constitución fue respaldada por las comisiones de boxeo de Panamá, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Puerto Rico, Colombia, Venezuela, México y República Dominicana. En su creación, votaron los presidentes de comisiones locales, resaltando Rodrigo Colon Sánchez de Panamá, José Wenslao Mayorga de Nicaragua, Roy Van Putten de Curazao y Héctor “Toti” García de Puerto Rico. 

En sus inicios, Fecarbox se llamaba la Federación Centroamericana y del Caribe de Boxeo. Pero, en el año 2001, se divide en dos federaciones regionales, una Centroamérica (Fecarbox) y una del Caribe, Federación del Caribe de Boxeo (Cabofe). Igualmente, la Federación Sudamericana de Boxeo (Fesubox) es parte integral del conglomerado de federaciones regionales, que forman el titulo Latino del CMB (WBC Latino). 

En la actualidad, Fecarbox es presidida por Alberto Guerra, de Panamá, la Cabofe por Peter Abdool, de Guyana y Fesubox por Carlos Rodríguez, de Argentina.
