Boxing at Paris 2024 (Les Jeux de la XXXIII Olympiade)

Some of the wildest haymakers I can ever remember seeing, from the Dutchwoman.

 

Nah, after that cringe performance in his exhibition versus Anpo, he seriously dodged a bullet here. 71kg lads would be too big and there's some talent at 63.5kg if he was even able to make the limit.

 

Abysmal style clash to watch.

Heijnen up on four of the five judges' scorecards. Won just doing nothing. She keeps glancing over at her corner as if beseeching them for help, like she doesn't know what to make a of a long-limbed awkward opponent.

 

Won finally grew a pair in round three, buzzed Heijnen a little, but...won't amount to a hill of beans as she was already in a deep points hole.

 

SD for zee Dutchie. Commie was too hesitant.

 

Jajaira González (USA) vs. Beatriz Iasmim Soares Ferreira (BRA), Women's 60kg

 

French are so goddamn petty...

Roaring approval for the Brazilian. Gee, wonder if that's got anything to do with González humbling their heroine Mossely in the last stage.

 

Jaja's gear couldn't be more unattractive.

Loose n baggy, and CCA disaster.

Commentator having a ball pronouncing "Feh-yehh-ah". Take a shot whenever...

 

Not sure what she began as but live odds at BetWay make González an 11/1 underdog heading into the last round. Yikes, what a squandering of momentum from that Mossely upset.

 

Soares Ferreira gets the UD. Parisians happy to be avenged.

(she also did bring a moderate contingent to cheer her on waving a giant Brazilian flag)

 

Like somebody ate and then puked up a cosmic pink & purple bath bomb.

 

Women's 60kg quarterfinals will be Kellie Harrington (IRE) vs. Angie Paola Valdés Pana (COL), and Beatriz Iasmim Soares Ferreira (BRA) vs. Chelsey Heijnen (NED)

The winner of Harrington vs. Valdés is taking gold, IMO.
