    Not really hard luck on Yafai he's won nothing lately, Selby just won gold at the european and is guaranteed a silver at the worlds. He should be going to the olympics! Selby will find it tough to beat that russian he is awesome.

    Selby has to beat the russian otherwise its a box off. Seems unfair to me considering what selby has done.

    I believe for Team GB as both boxers reached the quarters, the only way one can go through is if one actually wins the tournament. seems unfair but thats the way it is...

    yeah Selby needs to win gold to avoid the box off for Olympic qualification.
