    It's a tough, tough start for the GB boxers.

    Adios.

    I'm hoping the ones who do get past the start will only make them more confident as the tournemant goes on. It don't always work that way but it's just a hope.

    Who do you feel has the best chance of picking up a medal there anyway? from what I've seen you're the most knowledgable mainstream sports journalist when it comes to the amatuers.

    This obviously isn't being shown on TV is it? and I don't include a ridiculous BBC time slot two weeks after it's happened either.

    I was really glad that sky showed the last one too.

    The light-welterweights are on now. It works fine if you only have one of the screen's on. I'm currently watching the bottom one but sometimes change to the top depending on which country's are fighting.

    Seeing as the link won't work on my computer could any of you generous posters keep me informed on this thread how it's going?

    Point scoring has been diabolical as ever

    Not much of interest on right now. Dunno the weights but looking at the flags its...

    Palestein (I think) against Colombian. Palestein dude winning 9-7

    AND

    Australia against Bolivia. Australia 8-2 up

    Dunno, only just tuned in.

    Looks like both streams are on Light Welters so whoever our representative is in that division hopefully I've not missed it.

    Next...

    Ukraine/Turkmenistan

    Lithuania/Japan
