    I know how international this forum is.

    I'm just curious and I would like to know, among your amateurs, who already qualified and who's your bet to get a gold in the olympics and why.

    Vasyl Lomachenko.

    Excellent footwork, fast hands and feet and devoloping punching power.

    He is a future P4Per.

    Richard Abril. The pitty patty, running around, and clinching just screams amateur boxing.

    He's not even repping for my country (because he didn't get picked)

    But I am hoping Khans brother haroon Khan does well.

    He fights like Khan used to so its almost like watching a mini oldschool Khan.

    I wish him all the best.

    Both haven't qualified yet but are seriously good boxers!! Ward's qualification depends on the tournament in Turkey & Taylor in a over a month (i think)

    Feel sorry for Katie Taylor if she was a guy she would make millions as a pro!!

    The asia and oceania regions must be really weak when australia and kazakastan qualifed 10-9 boxers respectively to the olympics.

    For PR Kiria Tapia in the female division should be on the podium she can fight is hot as hell and won Gold in the PanAm games.

    Men sides will have to wait until the pre olympics in brasil but the big hopefuls to qualify and do great at the olympics are Emmanuel Rodriguez flyweight and Youth worlds silver medalist and gold at the youth olympics.

    [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhlif8jY440&feature=channel&list=UL[/ame]

    Jantony Ortiz will make the list but still hasnt decided for a weight he can fight at 49or52kg whatever weight he chooses he'll bump somebody out of the team.

    Other that are great prospects

    48 kg: Orlando González
    52 kg: Jeyvier Cintron
    60 kg: Félix Verdejo
    64 kg: Francisco Vargas
    75 kg: Enrique Collazo
    91 kg: José Santiago
    +91 kg: Gerardo Bizbal

    :hat
