    Haha brilliant performance by Yeraliyev. Yeraliyev's defence in the final round was equally funny as it was great.
    Definitely a bit harsh drawing eachother in the first round, like Thapa-Ramirez.
    Yeraliyev eliminated Robeisy Ramirez at the 2013 World Amateur Championships.

    Sotomayor doing well. His reach is far greater than the Ukrainian.

    He's related to Javier Sotomayor, high jump WR holder.

    How in hell did he end up fighting as an Azeri? Was there just someone ahead of him Cuba (Toledo?)?

    As bcr said, Toledo was always taking his place.
    He came 2nd place in Cuban National Champs, and 3rd, at different years because of Toledo. That's why we haven't seen him in Olympics.
