2024 Paris Olympic Games: Full boxing schedule and how to watch Team USA

The 2024 Paris Olympic Games will showcase the traditional sport of boxing, with top boxers from around the world demonstrating their skill as they compete for the gold medal, starting July 27.

Men’s boxing, with its rich Olympic history, has been a part of the Games since the first modern Summer Games in 1896, and became a permanent sport from the 1912 Stockholm Summer Games. Women’s boxing was introduced to the Olympic Games in 2012 in London.

According to Olympics.com, the rules for boxing competitions are designed to ensure the safety of the athletes. Boxers aim to land the most punches on their opponent’s head or torso using the knuckle area of the fist. Athletes must wear protective gloves, and hitting below the belt or the back of the head is strictly prohibited.
