"It is a great honor to receive an invitation to referee at the World Cup in China. This is a confirmation of my work so far, but also an additional motivation to represent Montenegro on the international stage in the best possible way. I am grateful to World Boxing for the trust they have shown me and I am looking forward to the new challenge," said Jabučanin.

By participating in this prestigious competition, Jabučanin will once again represent Montenegro on the world's largest boxing stage, confirming that Montenegrin sports workers and officials have a significant place in international sports organizations.
