Kenes Rakishev will supersede Timur Kulibayev as President of the Boxing Federation of Kazakhstan, according to the KBF press service.
"I was reelected as the President of the National Olympic Committee... As per these amendments, the National Olympic Committee fulfills the task of financing Olympic sports. This work has been performed for a year, and in order to avoid the conflict of interests, I decided to step down as the President of the Boxing Federation and Water Sports Federation of Kazakhstan," Kulibayev said at a conference at the KBF.
Kenes Rakishev, who has been the Vice President of the Kazakhstan Boxing Federation for a year, was unanimously approved at the conference as a new President of the Kazakhstan Boxing Federation, Kazinform reports.
