News summary

World Boxing president Boris van der Vorst aims to reform the sport's scoring system by integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) to enhance objectivity and transparency, contingent upon receiving official recognition from the International Olympic Committee (IOC). The current scoring system faces criticism for its subjectivity, leading to disputes and controversial outcomes, highlighted by the recent loss of India's Nishant Dev at the Paris Olympics despite his apparent dominance. Van der Vorst emphasized the need for technology to rebuild trust in the judging process, stating that several promising projects are underway. He is optimistic about gaining the necessary support from 50 national federations by the end of the year to secure the breakaway organization's recognition. The IOC has warned that boxing could be excluded from the 2028 Olympics if national federations continue to support the suspended International Boxing Association (IBA). This backdrop underscores the urgency of reforming the sport's governance and scoring integrity.
