    Very impressed by the Cuban team in this tournament. Four golds, despite a couple of dubious decisions against them ...

    Found Levit vs Manukian it's on the AIBA Youtube channel but it's blocked in my country so I had to use a Youtube unblocker to watch it

    Yoka was lucky to beat Hrgovic and Dychko. I thought he lost both fights by a small but noticeable margin of 2-1. Having said that he proved he could be near even with two of the best 4 super heavies in the amateur game, so his stock went up.

    Russia have amazing strength in depth. They had their B/C team out there and still came 2nd. I fully expect them to top the medals with their 1st choice team when it really matters in Rio.

    Nah Im sure many people were very impressed with him, he was one of the stand out performers in the tournament. Will be interesting to see who Russia send to Rio at his weight as Zakaryan is very good also and has already qualified.. maybe they'll have a box off?

    I liked him and his style, I thought Toledo got the better of him in their contest though.

    I think Ward basically is, I don't rate him. I thought the Uzbek got the better of him as well.
