      I'm completely fine with it. Until they sort out the corruption within it then it shouldn't be in the Olympics. Thing is boxing is becoming less and Less of a sport anyway as a lot of results are predetermined.

        The two are synonymous

            The IOC should drop boxing
            Having 20+ additional swimming competitions instead
            Like swimming on the side or underwater swimming with a gold medal for each 50 meters starting with 50 ending at 1000m

              They shouldn't be.

              Punish the corrupt not the sport of boxing.

                I'm in 100% agreement with you on those three decisions.

                  Better yet, the Olympics could add RetroSwimming! In these events, our 21st century athletes would be required to wear the retro swimsuits of Johnny Weissmuller, Buster Crabbe, or Annette Kellerman, and Esther Williams whether some of them would drown or not.

                    At least olympic boxing is actually amateurs competing.

                    Half of the sports in the olympics have professionals who are on multi million dollar contracts competing. How is that representative of the olympics?
