The World Boxing Council has handed the father of Japanese flyweight Koki Kameda a 90-day suspension for an outburst following his son's defeat to Thailand's Pongsaklek Wonjongkam last month.
The suspension, handed down in Mexico City, forbids Shiro Kameda from entering boxing venues for 90 days, applied from March 28, Kyodo news agency reported Wednesday.
Shiro Kameda, 44, launched a verbal tirade against fight officials after his son lost to Pongsaklek in Tokyo on March 27.
The Japan Boxing Commission on Monday voided Kameda's corner license, effectively banning him from events in Japan. In 2007, Kameda had his corner license suspended indefinitely for encouraging his other son, Daiki, to fight dirty in a flyweight bout.
