Women's boxing gains Olympic spot - cnn - directv
I am so happy that Women boxers will get the chance to compete for a gold medal in London, 2012. The decision was made by the International Olympic Committee's executive board. Boxing had been the only Olympic event without any female participants.
Three women's weight classes will be added, with one of the 11 men's classes dropped to make room for them. Boxing is open and accessible to anyone with talent and commitment and it is a great reward for the hundreds of women that compete in the sport.
