    I’m surprised he wants that smoke again after what happened last time they met. Jalolov’s left cross is the hardest punch in amateur boxing since the straight right of prime Majidov.

    Torrez will be an interesting prospect for the pros nonetheless.

    I'm still not huge on professionals being able to compete in the olympics. I think olympic boxing should be for amateurs to showcase their talent and should serve as a launchpad to success in the pro game.

    Jalolov baptized him with his lethal left hand Uzbek atomic bomb from hell

    He baptized him in Russia

    Will he baptize him again in Japan?

    The crime scene where the baptism took place

    Somebody call the lawman

    Imagine if Torrez can exact his revenge by performing a baptism on Jalolov in the Olympic final for the gold medal

    If Torrez actually manages to stop him it will probably be by a counter overhand right but i just don't think he can hang with the 6'7 leviathan. We have a monster on our hands and his name is Jalolov

    Quite the left cross Mr. Jalolov has. That is a terrifying weapon. I don't see how Torrez can beat him.

    Torrez is bound to get clipped and dropped by a check right hook at some stage in his career - maybe not now, but it's coming.
    I don't see him beating Jalolov, especially with the mental impact from their last encounter. Jalolov is huge by comparison too...

    Have to respect the bravery from torrez giving it another try after getting starched like that. Has to be top 10 in most brutal K.O's in Olympic boxing history.

    Jalolov's left hand is a weapon of mass destruction. It holds untold quantities of power. Eclipsing David Tua and Wladimir Klitschko's left hook several times over. Comparable to Wilder's supersonic right hand.

    Unlike Wilder's devastating strike. This bomb will have an excellent delivery system, making it all the more terrifying.

    That type of left hand from the southpaw stance is rare at heavyweight, that thing is nasty. After the olympics i would really like to see him get serious in the pro game as he's already 27. Keep moving him up. I would pay money to see him fight hrgovic.

    Jr was tremendous in his semi, dropping his man and busting him up to a stoppage. Jalolov couldn't put a dent in a Indian squaddie and took a count from fatty Frazer. I don't think it's cut and dried for Jalolov.

    Taking a count in amateur boxing doesn’t mean a fighter is hurt, just saying.

    Now that they’ve eliminated headgear and allowed professionals to moonlight as amateurs, I think they should slow way down with administering 8-counts. Hurt fighters should have a chance to fight through adversity. Meanwhile, the other fighter should be given the opportunity to capitalize on their advantage and possibly end the fight.
