How to Watch Boxing at the 2024 Paris Olympics: Stream on Peacock LIVE, Event Times, and More

The 2024 Paris Olympics are here! Boxing, one of the oldest Olympic sports, should be a must-watch for any fan over the next few weeks.  

Men’s Boxing has been an Olympic event since the 1904 Games in St. Louis, while Women’s Boxing was introduced at the 2012 London Games. Team USA is dominant in Boxing, bringing home 117 medals over the years — 50 golds, 27 silvers, and 40 bronze. The competition is set for athletes to fight for their spot on the podium.  

Make sure to see every round, every medal, and every moment streaming on Peacock.  

What is the schedule for Boxing at the 2024 Paris Olympics? 

Boxing will take place from July 27 to August 10, with events happening every day except for August 5.   

What venues will host Boxing?  

Boxing will occur at two venues for the Games. The North Paris Arena will host all preliminary matches, along with some Quarterfinals and Semifinals, from July 27- August 4. Beginning August 6, the remaining Boxing matches will be held at Stade Roland-Garros. The North Paris Arena, a temporary venue, is set up in an exhibition center in Villepinte, a city northeast of Paris. In contrast, Stade Roland-Garros is an iconic venue and hosts the famous tennis tournament, the French Open, every year.    

What are the rules for Boxing at the Paris Olympics?  

Boxing is a sport that uses a scoring system to determine winners. The goal of Boxing is to land successful hits, and the more a Boxer lands, the more points they gain for their score from a panel of judges. At the end of multiple rounds, each judge picks a winner based on technique, power, number of punches, and more. If there is a unanimous decision, the Boxer ultimately wins. If there is a difference in opinion, the judges do majority rule. A Boxer may also win if they knock out their opponent.  

The Olympics will have five judges determining each athlete’s score. Before each event, athletes will be weighed to make sure they fall within the correct weight class. The Men will do three rounds of three minutes each while the Women will do four rounds of two minutes each in a winner-take- all-and-moves-on format. The winner of the Final match takes gold, with the loser taking silver, and both losers from the Semifinals taking bronze.  

What are some Boxing terms I should know? 

Blow: A punch that lands on the opponent. 

Bout: A Boxing match. 

Combination: Multiple punches thrown in quick succession.  

Cross: A punch from the rear hand.  

Feint: A faked punch.  

Hook: A punch from either hand that swings at 90 degrees from side to center.  

Jab: A quick punch from lead hand.  

Orthodox: Boxer that leads their punches with their right hand. 

Southpaw: Boxer that leads their punches with their left hand.  

Technical Knockout (TKO): When a match ends due to a Boxer not able to continue because of injury or referee discretion.  

What is the weight class system for Boxing? 

To make fights fair, opponents in Boxing are determined based on weight. The weight class system has set lower and upper limits and Boxers will only fight those in their respective category. This creates a safer environment for Boxing that prevents more harm from happening between opponents with major size differences. For the 2024 Paris Olympics, there are seven Men’s weight classes and 6 Women’s weight classes.  

Men’s Weight Classes 

Men’s 51kg: Flyweight 

Men’s 57kg: Featherweight 

Men’s 63.5kg: Lightweight  

Men’s 71kg: Welterweight 

Men’s 80kg: Middleweight 

Men’s 92kg: Heavyweight 

Men’s +92kg: Super Heavyweight 

Women’s Weight Classes 

Women’s 50kg: Flyweight 

Women’s 54kg: Bantamweight 

Women’s 57kg: Featherweight 

Women’s 60kg: Lightweight 

Women’s 66kg: Welterweight 

Women’s 75kg: Middleweight  

Which athletes should I watch for?  

Team USA has eight athletes participating in Boxing — four men and four women competing in different weight classes. A potential favorite for gold is up-and-comer Jahmal Harvey (Men’s Featherweight), who won gold at the 2023 Pan American Games and at the 2021 World Championships. Accompanying him are Roscoe Hill (Men’s Flyweight) who won bronze at the 2023 Pan American Games, Omari Jones (Men’s Middleweight), and Joshua Edwards (Men’s Super Heavyweight). At the 2023 Pan American Games, Jennifer Lozano (Women’s Flyweight) won silver, Morelle McCane (Women’s Welterweight) won silver, and Jajaira Gonzalez (Women’s Lightweight) won bronze. The youngest Boxer for Team USA is 20-year-old Alyssa Mendoza (Women’s Featherweight). Team USA has not earned a gold medal since Claressa Shields won in 2016 and hasn’t won gold in a Men's event since 2004. Team USA Boxers are hungry to prove their worth in Paris.  

A few international names to look out for are Eumir Marcial (Philippines) and Arlen López (Cuba), who will both be competing in the Men’s Middleweight division. López took home gold at the 2016 Rio Olympics and 2020 Tokyo Olympics and Marcial also won bronze in Tokyo. Kellie Harrington (Ireland) will be hoping to defend her gold in the Women’s Lightweight division. Cindy Ngamba qualified for Paris in Women’s Middleweight but will be representing the International Olympic Committee’s Refugee Team, making her story and performance one to look out for.
