COSTA NAVARINO, Greece — Boxing is set to be on the program for the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles after years of disputes over how the sport is run. International Olympic Committee president Thomas Bach says the IOC's executive board has approved including boxing on the 2028 program. It still needs a full IOC session to sign off on the decision later this week but that's usually a formality. Bach says approval would mean "all the boxers of the world then have certainty that they can participate" in Los Angeles in 2028.
