The International Boxing Association (AIBA) has stood down all 36 referees and judges that officiated at Rio 2016 pending the completion of an investigation into judging at the Games.
The Olympics were marred by poor officiating, notably Michael Conlan's controversial defeat to Russia's Vladimir Nikitin in the bantamweight quarter-final.
