It’s the pinnacle of any amateur boxer’s career. It’s what they dream of. If you take that away, it’s going to be difficult to inspire the next generation of fighters. The Olympics brings something different to the sport.
It’s not just about the medals. It’s about the whole experience. It’s about representing your country on the biggest stage. It’s about the journey that you go on to get there. It’s about the stories that come out of it. It’s about the emotions that are involved.
Without the Olympics, boxing loses a big part of what makes it special. So, for the sake of the sport and for the sake of the next generation of boxers, let’s hope that a solution can be found to keep boxing in the Olympic Games.
It’s not just about the medals or the titles, it’s about the experience, the journey, and the opportunity to compete on the biggest stage in the world.
Boxing has a rich history in the Olympics, producing some of the greatest champions and moments in sports history.
It would be a tragedy to see that tradition come to an end.
Let’s hope that the IOC and the boxing community can come together to find a solution and ensure that boxing remains a part of the Olympics for generations to come.
