IBA President Umar Kremlev calls for radical reform of the Olympic Movement and equal rights for athletes

Lausanne, Switzerland – The debate around the role of politics in international sport and the treatment of athletes from different countries continues to intensify. Recent statements by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) that sanctions should not be imposed on athletes from countries involved in the Middle Eastern conflict have sparked renewed discussions about consistency, fairness and the future of the Olympic movement.
Commenting on the situation, International Boxing Association (IBA) President Umar Kremlev sharply criticized what he described as double standards in the approach of global sports governance and called for sweeping reforms within the Olympic system.
“The IOC’s statement that sanctions should not be imposed on athletes from countries involved in the Middle Eastern conflict is the peak of cynicism and clear double standards.
Not excluding anyone is the only right decision, but for some reason the careers of athletes from Russia and Belarus had to be sacrificed for the Olympic movement to reach this point,” said Kremlev.
According to the IBA President, the Olympic movement must undergo fundamental change in order to restore trust among athletes and fans.
“The new leadership of the IOC must finally get rid of the old order and the rat Thomas Bach, whose team is still dragging the Olympic movement to the bottom,” Kremlev said.
Kremlev also called for reforms aimed at strengthening the financial position of athletes and ensuring they benefit from the value they create within the global sports ecosystem.
“I hope that at the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles prize money will be introduced in all sports and that athletes will compete under their own flags and anthems,” he said. “This will allow participants to earn money that the IOC collects from advertising contracts thanks to the athletes themselves.”
The IBA President argued that athletes and coaches should receive a fair share of revenues generated by international sporting events.
“All this money rightfully belongs to the athletes and their coaches, not to officials enjoying five-star hotels and luxurious gala dinners. It is time to stop this injustice,” Kremlev said.
Calling for immediate change, Kremlev stressed that the Olympic movement must prioritize athletes and restore credibility to international sport.
“The Olympic movement must remove the tumour that is destroying it and leading to scandals and corruption. As an ambassador of sports, I demand immediate and radical reforms,” he stated.
Kremlev pointed to the International Boxing Association as an example of a sports organization that focuses on the interests of athletes, coaches and national federations.
“IBA is an example of such reforms, where everything is done to create the best conditions for athletes, coaches and national federations. On our podium there are always boxers, not politics. IBA is an independent organization that does not pursue private interests. All earned funds are reinvested in athletes, allowing them to earn money and support their families,” he said.
Kremlev concluded by calling on the global sports community to prioritize unity and fair competition.
“All disputes and conflicts must be resolved only in sports arenas within sporting competitions,” he added.
About the International Boxing Association:
The International Boxing Association (IBA) is the worldwide governing body of boxing, established in 1946. As the custodian of boxing, the IBA’s strategy is underpinned by an athlete-first approach, with a clear mission to promote, support, develop and unite the prestigious and historic sport worldwide.

Cluvz Introduces an All-in-One Platform for Creator Monetization
United States, 10th Mar 2026 – As the creator economy continues to expand, millions of independent creators are searching for better ways to monetize their audiences and build sustainable digital businesses. A new platform called Cluvz hopes to address that challenge by bringing several popular creator monetization tools together in one place.

Cluvz is designed as an all-in-one creator platform that combines elements commonly found across services such as Patreon, Cameo and Fanfix. Rather than relying on multiple platforms to manage different revenue streams, creators using Cluvz can handle subscriptions, personalized content requests and fan interactions within a single ecosystem.
The platform allows creators to offer subscription-based memberships, sell exclusive digital content and respond to requests from fans for personalized videos or messages. It also provides tools for private fan interactions, allowing creators to maintain closer connections with their audiences while generating revenue.
The idea behind the platform is to simplify what has become an increasingly fragmented landscape for online creators. Many creators currently rely on several services at once — one for subscriptions, another for custom content and others for fan communication.
“Today’s creator economy offers enormous opportunity, but the tools creators rely on are often spread across multiple platforms,” a spokesperson for Cluvz said. “We wanted to build a platform that brings these experiences together in a more streamlined way.”
Cluvz is designed to support creators working with global audiences, offering payment infrastructure and tools that allow creators to manage their communities and monetize digital content more efficiently.
Over the past decade, the creator economy has grown into a multibillion-dollar industry as more individuals turn their online audiences into sustainable businesses. As that industry evolves, platforms that help creators manage their revenue streams in simpler ways are increasingly gaining attention.
Cluvz is currently preparing for launch and has begun onboarding creators from around the world.

Gregory Burbelo Launches 30-Day Real Health Pledge
Maryland, US, 10th March 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — Gregory Burbelo, a Baltimore-based nutrition entrepreneur, today announced the launch of his new 30-Day Real Health Pledge, a personal initiative focused on fighting misinformation, extreme dieting culture, and inconsistent health habits.
The pledge is rooted in Burbelo’s long-standing belief that health should be practical, steady, and grounded in real knowledge.
“There’s a lot of noise in the health space,” Burbelo says. “I wanted to understand the science behind what actually works.”
After years of studying nutrition, working with major supplement brands, and building his own online nutrition business, Burbelo believes the current health climate calls for a reset.
“People don’t need complicated plans,” he says. “They need meals they can actually cook and enjoy.”
The 30-Day Real Health Pledge encourages individuals to focus on consistency, education, and daily habits rather than shortcuts.
“Progress takes time,” Burbelo says. “You don’t need extreme changes. You need steady habits.”
Why This Issue Matters Now
The pledge comes at a time when health misinformation and unsustainable trends are widespread:
-
Nearly 42% of U.S. adults are classified as obese, according to the CDC.
-
Studies show that most fad diets fail within one year, with many individuals regaining lost weight.
-
Research indicates that over 50% of adults rely on social media for health advice, where information is often unverified.
-
Only about 1 in 4 adults meet recommended physical activity guidelines.
Burbelo believes these numbers highlight the need for realistic, daily habits over extreme programs.
“Health is not complicated,” he says. “It’s about doing the right things over and over again.”
Gregory Burbelo’s 7 Personal Commitments
As part of the pledge, Burbelo is committing to seven specific behaviors for the next 30 days:
-
Strength train at least five days per week.
-
Prepare and share at least three simple, healthy recipes each week on social media.
-
Eat balanced meals built around whole foods daily.
-
Spend time each week reviewing current nutrition research to stay informed.
-
Avoid promoting extreme diets or quick-fix messaging.
-
Encourage followers to focus on habits, not hype.
-
Lead by example by practicing every principle he teaches.
“I’m not trying to be flashy,” Burbelo says. “I just want to help people live their best life in a way that lasts.”
The 30-Day Real Health Toolkit (Free & DIY)
Burbelo is also releasing a free, do-it-yourself toolkit so anyone can join the pledge without paying for services.
10 Actions You Can Take Today
-
Cook at least four meals at home each week.
-
Strength train or complete bodyweight workouts three times per week.
-
Drink water before every meal.
-
Add one serving of vegetables to two meals daily.
-
Walk at least 20 minutes per day.
-
Limit social media health advice to credible sources.
-
Plan meals every Sunday for the upcoming week.
-
Sleep at least seven hours per night.
-
Track workouts and meals in a notebook.
-
Reflect weekly on what habits felt sustainable.
“These are simple actions,” Burbelo says. “But simple, done consistently, changes your life.”
30-Day Progress Tracker
Participants are encouraged to print or recreate this simple tracker:
Weekly Check-In (Repeat for 4 Weeks):
-
Strength sessions completed
-
Home-cooked meals prepared
-
Daily water goal met
-
Vegetables added to meals
-

-
Weekly reflection written
At the end of 30 days, participants review what habits stuck and what needs adjustment.
“Live it first,” Burbelo says. “Then teach it.”
