    Didn´t N´Damn basically get outclassed in his last fight?
    I highly doubt that he can get a medal.

    Yes, no head gear, 10 point system similar to the pros

    I don't know if I disagree with him getting the win but he got it 3 round to none on all judges cards. He without a doubt lost at least 1 round!

    He actually lost his last fight in Venezuela but he had already qualified at that stage by getting to the final, so hard to know what to take from it. He is going to be in a tough division too with the La Cruz and Joe Ward .

    They are not using head gear anymore and the talent level is pretty good in the men's division.

    The main problem is there are very few USA fighters, so the networks won't show much boxing here :(

    I actually haven't seen much of them, Conlan is one of my favorites, i believe Joe Ward is really overrated, but besides them i haven't seen many of the rest, can you recommend me something.

    I'd say Barnes, Conlon, O'Reilly and Ward should be on anyone's shortlist.
