Boxing being removed from the Olympics

About fucking time this barbaric 'sport' is gone. It's a good time to start including esports as well.

Boxing isn't going out because they don't want the sport there, it's because the governing body is too corrupt even for the IOC

Fuck off, skateboarding and surfing are awesome. They should add futsal by the way.

All of boxing is, wbc is run by a mexican arab, thats enough to know theres some serious corruption going on there

this but unironically
roller derby is more of a sport than Olympic Boxing

They are awesome, but I dont see it fitting for the olympics.

>games

jesus christ.

This.

I think sports that involves jury to determine the winner should be removed desu

you're wrong actually, those are called olympics games, not olympic sports, they're called disciplines, not sports.

>let's get rid of gymnastics and figure skating
Yeah, no

this

And half of the non judged disciplines should go too. There’s a huge medal inflation problem.

Remove boxing and add pankration like what the Greeks did back in the day

Here's how it should be:

>ANCIENT SKILL Events:
Archery
New, Modified Equestrian event
Wrestling
Judo
Taekwondo
Fencing
Rowing
Animal Roping

>MODERN SKILL Events:
White Water Kayak
Climbing
Triathlon
Mountain Bike
Sailing
Shooting
Skateboard Race
Bull Riding

>AQUATICS:
Free/Breast/Back: 100/200/400/800/1600m
Open Water 10k
Relay
Depth Free Diving

>ATHLETICS:
Running: 100m/etc
Relay
Hurdles/Steeple
Marathon
Cross Country
Weightlifting
Pent
Field Events

>CYCLING
Road Race
Track Events

>SPORTS:
U-25 Basketball
20/20 Cricket
U-25 Association Football
Rugby Sevens
Volleyball/Beach
Table Tennis
Lacrosse
Field Hockey
Tennis
Badminton
Pocket Billiards
Water Polo

and then each host can add one meme sport and one meme event of their choosing
simple as

>the swedish national women's twerking team
we're finally on the good path

The Olympics are so pathetic, they are adding breakdancing and got rid of wrestling. The IOC should add some real shit like Jiu Jitsu, Futsal, Twenty20 Cricket, Surfing, Snooker (that Sullivan guy is good).

>break dancing
No fucking way will they make that a sport at the Olympics.

as long it brings Baseball back to olympics in 2024 i dont bother

Good, they need to remodel that shit.

they want pander to kool kids
but they are doing it 10 years later than they would do

if they want pander kids nowdays they should stop stupid and make an e-sports olympics in non-olympic years

they will

that iss an nice list
i would trade baseball for cricket beacuse its more popular and requires less space than Cricket

I don't know, I guess we'll see at 2024. I'm curious how they're going to handle transgender people this year. I haven't really seen much on it, but if they get some hulk in there like Hannah Mouncy, it's gonna be a shitshow.

me too, it will be an mess

about breakdancing, they will put in 2024 is pratically confirmed, unless some shit like boxing happens

what makes me mad is that they want put breakdance over sports that are getting recent push and deserves more like Basbeall, Criquet or roller sports

Remove ALL team sports (including doubles).
Remove ALL judged sports.
Remove HALF of the swimming events. Focus on 100m,800m, and 1600m pool events with only butterfly & freestyle. Add a 5km open sea swim.
Remove ALL cycling events. Commuting is NOT a sport.

>over sports that are getting recent push and deserves more like Basbeall, Criquet or roller sports
I guess like you said they're trying to appeal to a younger demographic. It's bullshit either way.

they had been, but they did at wrong ways possible

makes me wish be IOC president than he actual stupid guy that vangloates himself for the silver medal that he won in fencing in 1978 every fucking time

Why are there 30 medals in swimming?

How about both baseball and cricket and then we remove ice hockey from the winter olympics

ice hockey is the most cool in olympics

i vote to remove ice dance, that doesnt makes any sense nowdays

I don't see boxing, therefore fuck you

Because ameriswim advertising money demands it.

why is there 15 for weightlifting(7 for women), why is there 14 for rowing, why is there 10 for fencing? swimming isn't the only medal spam culprit.

you could dominate the world in soccer, rugby, cricket, baseball, our football, basketball, hockey, baseball and win like 5 medals and another country could dominate women's rowing and have more medals. it's arbitrary as hell and shouldn't be taken seriously

its already in 2020, you think the japs would host without baseball?

is this true? if so, based nips

unironically to prevent black people from winning

atlasobscura.com/articles/how-racism-kept-the-worlds-fastest-swim-stroke-out-of-the-pool

why does boxing need a medal for who is the best between 114lbs(52kg) and 123 lbs(56kg)? how is that any better? who gives a shit which ultra tiny manlets is the best at boxing

swimming only gets heat because it's the one the usa is good at

Yes
But the French faggots already booted it from 2024 and want to unironically add breakdancing

i know, but its an temporary sport
IOC dont made it perma and Paris prefered the meme KOOOOL sports instead

its true and they will use an NPB stadium for it

this, im glad that you explaned it first

>why is there 15 for weightlifting
weight classes, otherwise it would just be World's Strongest Man with a bunch of genetic freaks winning
>why is there 14 for rowing
fair point, there should only be 12
>why is there 10 for fencing?
foil, epee, sabre, x2 Team and Individual, x2 for men and women, completely justifiable amount

34 medals in swimming, boxing has 13.
If boxing had new weight classes every other kg you might have a point.

I am open to baseball, I just don't know how many countries sent teams last time

the sports should be as widely played as possible, so if only a few countries are sending teams for certain sports, then no mercy and cancel it

and then every country can add a meme national sport when they get to host, so Finland can do their form of baseball, and Japan can add baseball/softball, and Ireland can add whatever the fuck they play

Squash!
How is squash still not in the Olympics?!??!

only malnourished countries can qualify for most of them though. what fucking dude weighs 117 lbs?
playing with a bendy stick with a beeskeepers mask on nobody in real has ever done should not get 10 medals

>what fucking dude weighs 117 lbs?
Not americans that's for sure. Even you're 13 year olds are 200 lbs of mcdonalds and soda.

They have no ass

I could go for some squash. I haven't eaten all day.

there isnt much countries beacuse IOC was BS with WBSC

they can easly make an 16 country tournament for olympics but they forced an 6 tournament for both softball and baseball

alsso if you want to know how much countries play baseball i recommend you ssee the WBSC rankings: rankings.wbsc.org/

>Futsal
>Rugby 7s
>T20 Cricket
>Softball
>3x3 Basketball
>Minigolf
>Roller Derby
>Airhockey
>Tug of War

most of those already are on world games

i would trade T20 with baseball beacuse most countries play baseball than T20

That's why I listed Softball, the idea is alternative versions of major sports being represented, so as not to devalue the main sport.

This
except gynmastics

not a sport

if the swords weren't bendy the athletes would die

this is like complaining that archers shoot at targets rather than each other

How is it not a sport? Especially compared to things already in the olympics.

Boxing isn't being removed, the Olympic committee is kicking out AIBA and running the tournament themselves

trampoline is more of a sport than cricket and rugby put together according to the olympics

Apart from rugby 7s being in the last olympics, I'm not sure what you're trying to say here. That squash is a sport like rugby and cricket, or that squash is like trampolining, which is in the olympics...as squash should be.

1.) Named after a vegetable
2.) Weird
3.) Overly complicated set up with glass walls and shit
4.) Absolutely most autistic game of repeatedly smacking ball against a wall and weirdly rubbing against opponent
5.) people only play it because they aren't good at something else and need to let off some steam

Not sure if bait or genuinely retarded. Probably best to stop responding either way.

just to the arbitrary nature of what is and isn't in the olympics

>AQUATICS
>Running
cut these things to 3 different distance or just combine them to reduce amount of medals. fuck off with same shit 20 times.

50 metres freestyle
100 metres freestyle
200 metres freestyle
400 metres freestyle
800 metre freestyle
1500 metre freestyle
100 metre backstroke
200 metre backstroke
100 metre breaststroke
200 metre breaststroke
100 metre butterfly
200 metre butterfly
200 metre individual medley
400 metre individual medley
4 × 100 metre freestyle relay
4 × 200 metre freestyle relay
4 × 100 metre medley relay
Marathon 10 km

defend this

>says the country that wins all of its winter medals going down ice hills in different positions

why do women need 7 medals for rowing a canoe different ways?

>Add a 5km open sea swim
This and with no helpers allowed. If you get fatigued or attacked by aquatic life then they must allow you to die

boxing has been fixed the last 175 years

Absolute state of swimming "medals". Basically worth fuck all if you have a bronze medal.

This says ending AIBAs involvement, not boxing itself.

>skateboard race

AIBA should be banned, they are the most blatantly corrupt relevant sporting organisation in the world

Whatever the governing body for SEA games is jsut as corrupt

>younger demographic
breakdancing is so 80's, m8

They should go back to only doing track and field, and wrestling (without judges).

Boxing is staying they're just getting rid of the AIBA because they're systematically corrupt. The IOC is directly supervising it in 2020.

Boxing to Yea Forums when?

Wewill add pétanque

Why the hate towards break dancing in this thread? Is it because its a Black people thing? Its basically free style rhythmic gymnastics
