Yeah, hes got time. Was only 20 yesterday. He'll go pro and probably be given 2-3 years of learning fights, like Jo-Jo Diaz
If AIBA was looking to challenge the traditional pro game, they won't help themselves with these robberies.
The middleweights France and Cuba were borderline bums. Cuban won but could break his hand at any moment with that bi t ch slap of a right hand.
He won't learn too much in the pro's because he'll fight no hoper after no hoper for 5 years. In the ams he'd fight the best of the continuesly. Losing some winning some but becoming better and better.
Exactly. I do believe that someone with Vargas's style should have more fights than others to get to the world title level. This is how Vargas's career should be managed: 1st 5 fights = Mid Level Journeymen = 7 Months Next 4-5 fights = High Level Journeymen = 1 Year Next 3 Fights = 2 Gate Keepers, 1 Top Three Contender = 1 Year Go for the title. That is still almost/virtually 3 years after turning pro, he'd be going for a world title. That IS the slowest possible route he should take. The learning experience he'd get from this is FAR MORE than what he'd get being 22-0, 5 years into being a pro, fighting bums. If he can't win the world title after that, then he's got some 'world championship' experience under his belt to learn from, so he should be able to go again later. I disagree and disrespect the opinion of anyone who differs.
Rabii's loss wasn't a robbery, Rabii didn't deserve the victory. The difference between him several months ago at Worlds and now is that he was more aggressive then. Now he's focussing too much on counter-punching...he's playing that game without making great use of the ring. He'll learn what he needed to after this, I'm sure he'd be back for Gold again given the crucial lessons he can learn.
Yes, that's right. There were almost 16 thousands germans living in Karaganda as per the last population census (2010).
Yeah I know I was just surprised to hear that he had lost. He definitely looked better in the Worlds than he did in the fights of his in Rio I saw.
Savon beat levitt, controlled the pace, outboxed him in rd 1 and outworked and outlanded in rd 3, shane mcguigan breakdown was spot on
