    The hands down style, trying to throw punches from the hip only works for the elite. Would rather see Damian Hooper with a tighter guard and employing more of tried and true fundamentals. This would still allow for some fair on his part, but would make him much harder to tag.

    a lot of u blokes are being pretty harsh on Damien..
    no need to be claimin he will only fight no hopers and be KO'd the first time he does step it up in the pro ranks. it was only a few pages back everyone was sayin he's our best proposect we have and wat not.

    he's only 20 years old. has an outstanding amatuer pedigree (much better then a lot Aussie's who gone onto successful pro careers). bucket loads of natural talent.

    sure he just had a big loss but you've got to remember it was at an elite olympic level. its a well known fact that the russians are one of the top forces in the AM game.

    lets wait till he's got a few pro rounds under his belt and see how he adjusts his game and how he's moved along before claimin he will be a knock out waiting to happen.

    If he is moved along right and puts in the work he can definately go a long way in the pro game

    i think he should stick with the amateurs for one more olympic games. fark the pros, its worse than the amateurs. if he wins gold he will never have to turn pro.

    This sport has become a joke.

    click the link to read more. so much for Good Will and the Olympics, its become nothing more than a money wheel spinning out of control. fckwits even report videos of any olympic footage shown on youtube because according to them anything recorded at an olympic venue belongs to them lol. Fair use has gone right out the door, fck the olympics.

    Iv'e watched sport for ****ing decades and the opinion i'm begining to form is there are no bigger whingers and whiners than the Aussies when things ain't going right for you , **** sake lads you are an amazing country on a lot of fronts (sport being one of them ) so stop ****ing moaning about refs etc sure there are some stupid decision and robberies going on but you all act like it's never happened before , now i guess i will get all the silly ****s like Tc and the idiot general Sallywinder arsehole show up crying about training for four years only to get ****ed over , Deal with it and hold your head up lads you can't win all the time . :deal

    Sadly Josey i agree mate 30yrs + ago this country loved being the underdog and we respected everybody whether it was sporting or business or scoial....... Australian now in general are big heads, this is not only in sport but in life in general. Just look at that wanker wide open anus the way he talks about how great the weather is and the UK is a shithole etc etc...... gen y in Australia are ****s..... actually i hatye most Australians these days. We certainly have a chip on our shoulders.

    Growing up close to Cardiff arms park Kel iv'e drunk with plenty of Australian rugby fans for well over 30 years mate and seriously i have seen the physical change in them as well , years ago they were mostly tough hard as **** sort of fellers who were fanatical about their 15 but in general respectful to everyone and their surroundings , not so these days they all seem 20-30 something and their heads are as big as their fat arses .

    Clearly u didnt read the article or watch the footage, not to mention that the decision was over turned and didnt involve ANY aussie boxers, it was Japan vs Azerbaijan. :patsch.. even Teddy Atlas commented about it, just watch the footage and pull your head out of the sand for once Josey

    WTF do you think Green was talking about? The biggest robbery in this years olympics, u think he is talkin about some other fight? u think Teddy Atlas is Australian also? you think they are getting rid of computer scoring because it works?

    wake up m8, Green was talking about the Jap being robbed and so was i. your out of line with your comment as ive not bched about any aussies being robbed from these games.

    The guy wasnt even given an 8 count and there is evidence that the IABA have been paid off, yet u think its somehow related to Australia?


    Bob Papa, NBC’s relatively calm play-by-play announcer, was incensed. “This referee never administered an eight-count for an injured boxer. He should be eliminated from the Olympics.”

    Teddy Atlas, NBC’s absolutely un-calm color commentator, concurred: “Immediately!”
