Boxers to know Olympics fate in May

Lausanne, March 28 

The under-pressure International Boxing Federation (AIBA), which is fighting to keep its sport on the 2020 Tokyo Olympics roster after a storm of corruption allegations, will have to sweat it out until May before the IOC decides on its fate.

Boxing’s inclusion in Tokyo depends on the outcome of an investigation into AIBA by the International Olympic Committee, which has presented the body with a list of 41 questions via audit firm Deloitte. “The matter is being studied and we will make no comment for the moment,” IOC spokesperson Christian Klaue said. — PTI
