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

Giving the 2nd round to Chaloyan was shocking. Feel for Orie terrible decision.

 

I thought Joshua Edwards should have been given the nod.

 

Many thought he outboxed Lenzi. Edwards also schooled Gerlon Congo last year who is currently still in the running. But it is what it is. Edwards should just go pro, I still think he can have plenty of success

 

Orie and Edwards to go pro now surely, both will have their pick of promoters courting them. By no means the most talented but for obvious reasons the most marketable.

 

Clearly.

I thought the Italian won the first. But it seemed like Edwards won the second and the third and landed twice as many punches over the last two rounds.

Not sure how they score amateur boxing anymore, honestly.

Oh well.

As pros, Edwards stops him. The Italian was gassed in the second round.

 

I wouldn't miss that for the world . What do you think about some of the officiating? I reckon the French hired them from Las Vegas. They've robbed 3 Brits as Ive seen. Theyre just rotating between between refereeing & judging

 

That was a Canelo Vegas decision alright French are blatant no Brits must medal

 

Yep

 

All the refs do is tell them not to spin around lol
