Guido Vianello the huge italian won against Rafael Lima(BRA) 3:0.Vianello is 6,7 tall,good technician.
One side of the bracket will probably come down to Viktor Vykhryst vs Maxim Babanin, favor Vyhyrst there and the other side could be a variety of outcomes. On the other side the American Marlo Moore fights Petar Belberov and Guido Vianello fights Mou Haipeng. Have to favor Belberov and Vianello but if both of them lost it wouldn't shock me. Belberov is a solid fighter but always under the top guys and Moore I think is better than his awful showing at the Americas qualifier. Mou Haipeng is quite young but improving, can keep a high pace going with lots of pressure. At this point I think Vykhryst wins the tournament and gets the Olympic spot, leaving one remaining spot at the APB/WSB/pro qualifier in Venezuela next month.
Results round up: Mohamed Soltby/Andras Csomor ud Zhilei Zhang/Jamal Woods tko 2.Darmani Rock/Bobby Favors tko 1. Oleksandr Teslenko/Tamas Bajzath tko 2 Nicholas Mazurek/Grover Young ud
I doubt it,he can be outboxed and outpowered but anything can happen.Vianello is still to green for qualifying spot I think.From americans I think Can Avesome have realistic chance to make it to the olympics.
