Wsb

Valentino got dominated by David Oliver Joyce a few weeks back. Dont think he's that big of a loss anymore.

 

Savon just destroyed that Moroccan guy in a round. What a knockout.

 

Last weekend the 5th Season of the World Series of Boxing started. I've seen a couple of matches and I was impressed by the level of competition. Also the best fighters in the WSB will qualify for the 2016 Olympics.
The results for week 1:

Group A:
British Lionhearts - China Dragons 3-2
Ukraine Otamans - Mexico Guerreros 4-1
Cuba Domadores - Morocco Atlas Lions 5-0

Group B:
Puerto Rico Hurricanes - Rafako Husars Poland 3-2
Astana Arlans Kazachstan - Caciques Venezuela 5-0
Argentina Condors - USA Knockouts 1-4
Azerbeijan Baku Fires - Italia Thunder Boxing Team 4-1


I think Cuba and Kazachstan are the favourites for this season, with USA, Great Britain, Russia, Ukraine and Azerbeijan as dark horses.

Italia was very dissapointing with a terrible display by Bronze medal winner Vencinzo Mangiacapre and an unexpected loss by the Irish Michael Conlan.
Cuba was impressive with easy victories and a hard knock-out by Heavyweight Erislandy Savon.

It's going to be an exciting season and everything can be watched live and for free on http://www.aibaboxingtv.com/ :good

Ukraine Otamans - British Lionhearts has started with a nice match between Andrew Selby and Azat Usenaliev in the Flyweights

 

Italy is very possibly at its weakest point. Still, they should be able to be top 4 in the group stage.

 

Who are the guys to watch?

 

Team Cuba:

Julio Cesar La Cruz (light heavy, possibly #1 P4P in WSB)
Lazaro Alvarez (lightweight)
Roniel Iglesias (welter)
Arisnoidys Despaigne (welter)
Yasnier Toledo (light welter)
Arlen Lopez (middleweight)
Erislandy Savon (heavyweight)

Team Kazakhstan:

Daniyar Yeleussinov (welter, him vs. Iglesias will be great if it happens)
Zhanibek Alimkhanuly - (middleweight)
Filip Hrgovic - (super heavy from Croatia)

I follow Italy as well but the team is not that good this year.

 

Aren't the World Amateur Championships this year?

 

Yes, 5th-18th October in Doha, Qatar.

 

There's no chance anyone on Team Cuba will go pro, is there?

 

Actually Cubans have more or less always been about #1, so it's hard to say.

Their team from the 90s is probably the mot dominant ever.
