    So these guys were just wasting their time in the AM's? They didn't learn anything? It was just coincidence that Ward won Gold and happens to be a great pro? I think Ward's amateur career was pretty telling of the things to come..

    What you meant to say was that a good am record doesn't always translate to a good professional career. People without chins, power, stamina and heart can shine in the AM's, yet be exposed in the pros.

    Gennady has patience, power, and durability. Those traits generally carry into the pros very well.

    For every Ward I can name 4 more who didn't do **** after they won a gold medal. AM boxing success doesn't always translate into pro success, I don't know how much more clear I can be?
