Uzbekistan competed at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. Originally scheduled to take place from 24 July to 9 August 2020, the games were postponed to 23 July to 8 August 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[1] It was the nation's seventh consecutive appearance at the Summer Olympics in the post-Soviet era.

Uzbekistan won five medals at the games, down from 13 in 2016. Three of the medals were gold, however, only one less than the country won in Rio de Janeiro.

Boxing

<templatestyles src="Module:Hatnote/styles.css"></templatestyles>

Uzbekistan sent eleven boxers (eight men and three women) to the Olympics. Mirazizbek Mirzakhalilov (2019 world men's featherweight medalist), Bobo-Usmon Baturov (men's welterweight medalist), and reigning super heavyweight champion Bakhodir Jalolov, two-time Asian medalist Elnur Abduraimov, and rookies Sanjar Tursunov (men's heavyweight) and Tursunoy Rakhimova (women's flyweight), and Shakhobidin Zoirov – defending the men's flyweight title in his second Olympics – secured spots on the Uzbek team in their respective weight divisions by advancing to the semifinal match or winning a box-off at the 2020 Asia & Oceania Qualification Tournament in Amman, Jordan.[4]

Fanat Kakhramonov (men's middleweight), 2019 world silver medalist Dilshodbek Ruzmetov (men's light heavyweight), Raykhona Kodirova (women's lightweight), and Maftunakhton Melieva (women's middleweight) completed Uzbekistan's boxing lineup by topping the list of eligible boxers from Asia and Oceania in their respective weight divisions of the IOC's boxing task force rankings. Melieva was later replaced by Shakhnova Yunusova. With 11 competitors, Uzbekistan tied with Great Britain for the largest number of qualified boxers at the games. Jalolov won a gold medal.
