The Nation Newspaper Paris 2024: Ladipo backs IBA on cash rewards for Boxing medallists
, Rafiu Ladipo has applauded the decision by the International Boxing Association to financially reward boxers that won medals at the forthcoming Olympic Games in Paris, France.
“I will say boxers will give everything including their blood to be at the Olympic Games and if they win medals and are recognised for that effort, so be it. I see it as a welcome development,” Ladipo told NationSport. NationSport recalls that the International Boxing Association recently made the announcement to reward boxers who excel Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
Of those amounts, half will go the athlete, with the other 50 per cent shared between their coach and national federation. Boxers who lose in the quarter-finals and finish fifth will also each receive $10,000 .
