    I think Tittyfuk just wanted to see the final bell.

    Compared to the Tokyo games, Jalolov is much more subdued and uninspired. Against Clarke, he pushed for the stoppage, and he could have very well have done that against Tiafack.

    Tiafack felt the power and fought over-cautiously from then on.

    “It's called the “three ground strikes" — or, les trois coups, s'il vous plait. It’s a new, fittingly French, Olympics ritual that was introduced for the first time this year at the Paris Games.

    The custom is borrowed from an ages-old practice found on French performance stages. But at the Paris Games, it's meant to connect spectators with athletes, and to celebrate the host country's theatrical heritage, organizers say.”




    (Also The URL… ‘Olympics Ritual big stick’ :lol:

    The only time in Paris he hasn't looked bored was against Teremoana.

    I expected more from Nelvie. Jalolov never out of first gear. Easy UD for him.

    Oh wow, there's a scorecard that isn't a 30-27 shutout for Jalolov.

    Of course, it's because that judge scored round three a 10-8 for him. :sisi1

    30-27 x4, 30-26, UD for Jalolov.

    Does the boxing at the Olympics conclude today?

    Looks like all the big finals are now?

    Nah

    Only the semis for the big boys and a few other divisions in both men's and women's.

    Tiafack was not a threat in the politest way after 2 mins. He tried to do something in the 2nd but that felt more like “this is mine, thanks for playing”
