Boxing At The 1992 Summer Olympics




In order to limit the number of boxers in the Barcelona boxing competition, the International Amateur Boxing Association ( AIBA ) set a maximum per continent, with the exception of America, which was considered to constitute two different groups. The participants had to be between 17 and 32 and to present their competition record with basic medical certificates and a confirmation that they had had their annual check-up. With this reduction in numbers (108 fewer than in Seoul ), the AIBA aimed to raise the quality of the boxing competition at the Barcelona Games. The introduction of
computerised scoring, replacing the traditional cards, was one of the novelties after Seoul. At the Barcelona Games, the judges used an electronic system to send the score to a computer while the fight
was going on, so that it was impossible for them to change them.
