Benin competed at the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, United States, which were held from 28 July to 12 August 1984. The country's participation in Paris marked its third appearance at the Summer Olympics since its debut in 1972, and after boycotting the 1976 Summer Olympics. The Beninoise delegation consisted of three athletes: boxers Firmin Abissi, Georges Boco, and Maxime Mehinto.
Mehinto competed first for the nation, doing so in the light middleweight event. Boco competed the following day in the welterweight event. Abissi competed last in the bantamweight. All of them failed to make it past the second round. Thus, Benin has yet to win an Olympic medal.
