IOC Votes: Boxing is Officially back on the LA2028 Program
The decision is final: Boxing is back on the Olympic Program.
Boxing Canada is proud that the work of World Boxing, of which our own Ryan O’Shea is a Vice President, has paid off. Support was clear at the 144th Session of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to include boxing on the sports programme of the Olympic Games Los Angeles 2028 (LA28).
With the pathway for our athletes secure and the trust of the IOC behind World Boxing’s efforts to provide strong, reliable, and trustworthy leadership for Olympic-style boxing, now is the time to focus on developing athletes and setting our goals on Canada winning another medal at the Olympics.
Thanks to all our members who supported this effort!
