The competition was split among 15 events, 10 for men and five for women. In 2016, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) made several changes to its sports program, which were subsequently implemented for these games. Included in this was the addition of two additional women's boxing events.[3][4]
* Host nation (Peru)
Women's middleweight Jessica Caicedo of Colombia originally won the gold medal, but was disqualified for doping violations.
A total of 120 boxers qualified to compete at the games (eight per event). The host nation (Peru) received up to seven automatic qualification spots (five men and two women). The remainder of the spots were awarded at the Pan American Games qualifier held in Managua, Nicaragua in April 2019.[5][6]
