that means they confirmed those 5 weights we heard before in weightlifting

 

out of current 10 wights, it will be #2, #4, #6, #8 and #10 in Olympics for both men and women

If any sport will be removed from 2024 it will happen at the IOC Executive Board meeting / IOC Session in Lausanne next month

Any idea of weightlifting or boxing are at risk?

If a sport does get removed will they have time to add a new one?

sure, if they choose a sport that's already well structured with established events and rankings and they don't have to build anything from scratch...

 

in any case, if they throw one between weightlifting and/or boxing out of the Olympic program, they have a safe bet to replace it/them...

 

it's Karate, which would actually deserve to be there (possibly with a better format, no more Kata but all 5 M+W Kumite classes with let's say 16 fighters per class) after its Olympic one-hit appearance in Tokyo instead of that joke named breakdance...

I could also see them giving Squash it's long awaited Olympic debut. It's quite popular in France so finding a venue wouldn't be hard and it's got a solid ranking system with all continents represented at least once in the top 40 in both men's and women's divisions.

Please no karate, I was very much in favor before as Croatia has few good fighters. But after watching karate for the first time, I think it is the most boring and totally non-sense combat sport.

No chance anything gefs added... It is way, way too late for that.

Yea no new sport is being added. There is too much planning and jobs they would need to hire in a short time frame.
