    The Turk is in the other semi though so it is very likely he will win the whole thing going on results so far, this tournament has been disgustingly biased.

    :lol: Yep. Turkey sent 10 boxers to the worlds & only 3 of them won a fight.

    They have 8 guys in the semis :-(

    How the **** can that even happen haha, they need to be stopped or they win, hopefully we are biased in London but hopefully not that badly biased. We want the lads to win medals but they need to be deserved.

    The scoring is such a **** take. The judges should be watching the fights in a room and not at ringside they are swayed by the fans at the venue big time. How some of the Turks have got so far is questionable. No doubt they will end up winning a load of gold medals from this. Then come London they will all go out early in the games in my opinion.

    The UK will clean up at London any close fights your guys will pick up the win. The only reason you wont is because they get stopped. I think it will be the biggest number of medals from London for team GB. Its the perks of having the games at home and many nations have profited from it before which is wrong.

    Just hoping whatever Irish fighters going over avoids the GB lads for as long as possible as in a close fight they will have no chance they would need to be going out looking for a stopage.
