Organisers of the ongoing Yucateco Boxing League have terminated the appointment of the head coach of Conkal Boxing Club, Ologundudu Adeniji.
According to a statement signed by Ezekiel Akinyemi Rotimi, Chairman Disciplinary Committee, Yucateco Boxing League, Adeniji’s apparent disregard for the principles of fair play and sportsmanship during a week 9 bout in Osogbo on the 5th of January 2024 goes against the values upheld by the the boxing body.
“It’s with great concern and disappointment that we address the action of coach Ologundudu Adeniji’s conduct during the Yucateco Boxing League event held in Osogbo on January 5, 2024. His actions on this day have raised serious issues of misconduct, disruption of the event, insubordination and the use of threatening language towards Judges and the referees, which are unequivocally unacceptable,” the Statement reads.
“Adeniji’s apparent disregard for the principle of fair play and sportsmanship during the event, coupled with the inappropriate language and threat directed at the officials, go against the values upheld by the Yucateco Boxing League. Such behavior not only tarnishes the reputation of Conkal Boxing Club but also undermines the integrity of the entire league.
“In light of the aforementioned offense, the committee has unanimously decided to relieve coach Adeniji of his duties as the coach of Conkal Boxing Club with immediate effect. Coach Adeniji’s actions have left us with no choice but to enforce this disciplinary action.”
“We trust that coach Adeniji will reflect on his conduct and consider the impact it has on both his reputation and that of the boxing community at large.”
