Who is boxing at the Olympics? Full list of confirmed participants at Tokyo 2020 by weight class

After a year's delay, the Olympic Games in Tokyo are finally set to begin as hundreds of boxers begin their quest to earn medals representing their countries in Japan.

And despite it being confirmed that no spectators will be at any event, including the Kokugikan Arena where the boxing will be held, each fighter aims to follow in the golden footsteps of the likes of Anthony Joshua, Katie Taylor and Vasyl Lomachenko. 

While the number of weight classes for men has been reduced from ten to eight, there will now be five women's events, an increase from three at Rio in 2016, and just the third time that females have stepped in the ring at the Games. 

Unsurprisingly, the USA leads the way in the all-time medal count, with 50 golds from an overall 114 medals, with Cuba in second and Great Britain in third.

But just who is fighting in each weight category?
