    Ramirez-Stevenson should be a good one.

    I think if Ramirez chooses to fight, that's Stevenson's best chance.

    Ramirez could be reasonably worn out by the final bout. Akhmadaliev did land quite a few punches.

    After the way Arlen Lopez dealt with Melikuziev last year in the final, I would be VERY impressed with Melikuziev if he manages to beat Arlen.

    **** Shaksuvarly, he did not deserve the two latest decisions he was awarded.

    ramirez better beat stevenson, despite the massive disadvantage, he's far too good for stevenson

    I think Stevenson should fight in next year's World Amateur Championships, and gain more experience.

    I would agree but I think the marketability of an Olympic Gold is more alluring for the paid ranks.

    If he doesn't, then I think he should do what I just said.

    He's only 19, no need to rush into the pros.

    Not really excited about any prospects here, no one's really using the shoulder roll.

    Just a shame defense won't be in any of these mens' repertoires.

    Disappointed.

    Don't see anyone here making it beyond domestic level, just being honest.

    Aren't they already beyond domestic level, being at the Olympics and all?
