IOC recommends inclusion of boxing in Los Angeles 2028 Games — Bach
The International Olympic Committee executive board on Monday, March 17, recommended the inclusion of boxing in the Los Angeles 2028 summer Olympics, ending a years-long saga regarding the sport's Olympic future.
The IOC last month granted provisional recognition to World Boxing in a major step towards the sport's inclusion in the 2028 Olympics.
The recommendation will now be put to a vote at the IOC session in Greece this week and is expected to pass easily, with boxing among the popular Olympic sports.
The boxing competition at the Paris 2024 Games was run by the IOC after it had stripped the International Boxing Association of recognition in 2023 over its failure to implement reforms on governance and finance.

00:00Today's executive board was pretty, I can say, uneventful, only one real decision, and
00:13this was about putting boxing on the program of the Olympic Games in LA 2028, after the
00:28provisional recognition of world boxing in February, then we were in the position to
00:38take this decision so that this recommendation, of course, has to go to the session, but I'm
00:48very confident that the session will approve it so that all the boxers of the world then
00:54have certainty that they can participate in the Olympic Games in LA 2028 if their
01:08national federation is recognized by world boxing. The conditions are very clear. They
01:18have to follow the rules. Everybody in the Olympic movement who is following the rules
01:27of the Olympic Charter is welcome, and everybody who is not following the Olympic Charter is not
01:35welcome. So the ball is in the court of the Russian Olympic Committee.
