text: # Boxing at the 2004 Summer Olympics – Light flyweight
  
  The light flyweight boxing competition at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens was held from 18 to 29 August at Peristeri Olympic Boxing Hall. This is limited to those boxers weighing less than 48 kilograms.
  
  ## Competition format
  
  Like all Olympic boxing events, the competition was a straight single-elimination tournament. This event consisted of 29 boxers who have qualified for the competition through various tournaments held in 2003 and 2004. The competition began with a preliminary round on 18 August, where the number of competitors was reduced to 16, and concluded with the final on 29 August. As there were fewer than 32 boxers in the competition, a number of boxers received a bye through the preliminary round. Both semi-final losers were awarded bronze medals.
  
  All bouts consisted of four rounds of two minutes each, with one-minute breaks between rounds. Punches scored only if the white area on the front of the glove made full contact with the front of the head or torso of the opponent. Five judges scored each bout; three of the judges had to signal a scoring punch within one second for the punch to score. The winner of the bout was the boxer who scored the most valid punches by the end of the bout.

  ### Notes
  
  * Najah Salah Ali (IRQ) received a wild card from the IOC.
  * Toshiyuki Igarashi (JPN) replaced Noman Karim (PAK) as a lucky loser, because the Pakistani fighter dropped "due to technical reasons".
