The boxing competitions at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris[1] ran from 27 July to 10 August.[2] Preliminary boxing matches occurred at Arena Paris Nord in Villepinte, with the medal rounds (semifinals and finals) staged at the Stade Roland Garros.[3]
The boxing program for Paris 2024 featured the same amount of weight categories as those in the previous three editions, consisting of thirteen in total. Pursuant to the International Olympic Committee's mission of attaining full gender equality, the program continued to remain updated with the number of men's weight classes reduced by one weight category contrary to the women's side's increase by one weight category for a total of 7 men's and 6 women's events compared to 8 men's and 5 women's at the previous edition.[4][5]
In June 2022, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) barred the International Boxing Association's (IBA) rights to run and organize the tournament due to "continuing irregularity issues in the areas of finance, governance, ethics, refereeing, and judging".[6] Hence, the IOC executive board established and ratified a new qualification system for Paris 2024 that would witness the boxers obtained the quota spots through the continental multisport events, such as Asian Games, European Games, Pan American Games, African Games, and the Pacific Games.[7][8]
Uzbekistan topped the medal count in boxing, winning five gold medals (all men's). China was second with three (all women's).
