Paris Saint-Germain Boxing

Paris Saint-Germain Boxing, commonly known as PSG Boxing, was a French professional boxing club based in Paris, France. It operated as the boxing department of Paris Saint-Germain FC. The section was established on the initiative of former French professional boxer Jean-Claude Bouttier and trained at a dedicated boxing gym located within the Parc des Princes. Throughout its existence, the club was led by president Bouttier, along with managers René Acquaviva and Gilbert Delé, and featured a roster of prominent French boxers.

PSG Boxing quickly assembled a competitive team, including fighters such as Philippe Desavoye, Djamel Lifa, Julien Lorcy, Hacine Cherifi, Patrice Aouissi, Ludovic Proto, Philippe Michel, Tshimanga M'Biye, and Khalid Rahilou. The boxers trained at the gym established in 1993 and competed at national and international levels during the mid-1990s, bringing professional boxing under the wider PSG sporting umbrella.

During its five years of competition, PSG boxers achieved notable success, winning four French championships, three European titles, and one world championship. Key achievements included Patrice Aouissi's cruiserweight French and European titles, Julien Lorcy and Djamel Lifa's European championships, and Khalid Rahilou's WBA light welterweight world title. Despite this rapid rise and decorated record, the section entered its final phase following the departure of Acquaviva in mid-1997.

Confronted with the loss of its key coach and limited support from the French Boxing Federation, Paris Saint-Germain disbanded PSG Boxing later in 1997, closing the Parc des Princes gym. During its brief existence, the section became one of the most successful boxing departments in France, producing multiple national, continental, and world champions.
