Boxing at the 2024 Summer Olympics
2024 Paris Olympic event
The boxing competitions at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris ran from 27 July to 10 August. Preliminary boxing matches occurred at Arena Paris Nord in Villepinte, with the medal rounds (semifinals and finals) staged at the Stade Roland Garros.
The boxing program for Paris 2024 featured the same number of weight categories as those in the previous three editions, consisting of thirteen in total. According 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.
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". Hence, the IOC executive board established and ratified a new qualification system for Paris 2024 that would witness the boxers obtain the quota spots through the continental multisport events, such as the Asian Games, European Games, Pan American Games, African Games, and the Pacific Games.
Uzbekistan topped the medal count in boxing, winning five gold medals (all men's). China was second with three (all women's).
Competition format
Under the IOC's mission of attaining full gender equality, Paris 2024 instituted another significant change to the boxing program, with the number of weight categories for men reduced from eight to seven, ultimately removing the middleweight division. On the other hand, the women's weight classes witnessed a corresponding rise from five to six with the bantamweight category introduced.

Why this record matters
The phrase “2024 Paris Olympic event” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Chronology, provenance and viewpoint should be read together before a broad social or political interpretation is accepted. The source revision retrieved here is dated Dec 14, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q109311613. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2024 and 2022.
Institutional narratives can privilege the records that survived while minimizing voices that were never formally collected. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
