2012–13 World Series of Boxing

Boxing competition

The 2012–13 World Series of Boxing was the third edition of the World Series of Boxing since its establishment in 2010 and ran from November 2012 to May 2013. The event was organized by the International Boxing Association (AIBA). The twelve teams, divided into two groups of six, contain a majority of boxers from the country in which they are based along with a smaller number of overseas boxers. The Team final bouts were hosted in Astana, Kazakhstan.

The 2012-13 World Series of Boxing was the first season to feature a knockout stage, with the top four teams from each group advancing to the quarterfinals. Additionally, the British Lionhearts finished the regular season with a perfect record of 10 wins out of 10 matches, becoming the first team in World Series of Boxing history to achieve this feat. The Cuba Domadores won the team championship, defeating the defending champions, the Dynamo Moscow, 6-4 in the final.

Competition format

Each team competes in home and fixtures against the others in their group. The top four teams from each group will qualify for the knock-out stages. The quarter and semi-finals will also take place on a home and away basis but the final will be held at a neutral venue over two days. Each fixture consists of five fights (five rounds of three minutes) at the following weights:

Heavyweight (91+ kg)
Light heavyweight (80 – 85 kg)
Middleweight (68 – 73 kg)
Lightweight (57 – 61 kg)
