Boxing is one of the 12 sports featured in the 1959 Southeast Asian Peninsular Games held from 14 to 17 December 1959. Due to only three countries participating in this event, all athletes were already assured of medals.
During the initial draw for the tournament, five Singaporean boxers have drawn byes and are supposed to go straight to the finals of their respective events.[1] However, a few days later, Burma protested the draw results, therefore a re-draw was made with the agreement from Singapore.[2]
