The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has recommended that boxing be included in the 2028 Los Angeles Games, following years of uncertainty surrounding the sport's status. IOC President Thomas Bach expressed confidence that the decision will be ratified by IOC members soon, giving boxers hope for Olympic participation depending on their national federations' recognition by the newly established World Boxing. This move comes after the sport faced a ban due to controversies stemming from the previous governing body and ongoing issues related to integrity and scoring.
Boxing's fragile Olympic status is on the verge of being secured after years of uncertainty. IOC president Thomas Bach announced boxing’s inclusion in the 2028 Games.
After the provisional recognition of World Boxing in February we were in the position to take this decision. I'm very confident the IOC session will approve it.
