    I think Jalolov is heavy favorite and he did it to torrez before.

    Doubt it, but it would be fun to watch. In terms of becoming pro in future, Torrez will struggle with those behemoths, he just lacks the size

    He should absolutely campaign at cruiserweight, he's just made for it.

    Lopez won that first round purely based on appearing to be the aggressor. It was really an even round in terms of actual punches landed.

    Judges are so bias in favour of Lopez.

    It has been a fairly even 2 rounds and Lopez has won the first two rounds and is now sure to win.

    I think Whitaker landed the cleaner punches in that second round

    Much better from Benji but judges didn't see it that way.

    Arlen Lopez is just so mesmerising with his movement, typical slick ass Cuban. He deserves that gold medal anyway.

    Judges were off their rockers there.

    That was incredibly tight but they gave him a clean sweep of rounds 1 and 2.

    I think they gave Whitaker the 3rd.

    No doubt that Whitaker does a lot better as a professional than Lopez does. Lopez although skifull will stay amateur for too long as most Cubans do.

    Whittaker and Clarke did very well to win silver and bronze and both will turn pro now.
