Estonian boxer Allan Morozov has been stripped of the national title in the 60 kg weight category, which he won on 1 March, following the discovery that he tested positive for a banned substance on the day before the competition.

Morozov has been handed a four-year ban from competition for the doping violation, meaning he will be unable to compete in any official sporting events during this period. The national title has been declared void and will be awarded to the next competitor.

This is a significant case in Estonian boxing, as the stripping of a national title due to doping rule violations is rare. A four-year ban is among the most severe sanctions that can be imposed in sport for doping.
