Amateur Scoring & Why We Need Reform

nm this ozzy dude's pretty fun to watch too.

 

oh **** this is an aswome fight

 

Whos fighting...Flemming?

Won a bronze at the u19 world champs a couple of years ago.

 

maybe the scoring system is okay but like all boxing some of these judges need to see an optomatrist. That Brazilian that just fought should be a little pissed that he didn't get the win.

 

It was a great fight. A real war. But Flemming got clocked twice and was given two standing eights. I'd be interested to know how old the French guy was cause if he's young and is looking to turns pro he'll be a pretty entertaining fighter.

 

Has Tony Little from oz fought yet?

He was fighting an african today.

 

He's fighting right now.

He's up four nothing after the first.

 

keep ya posted.

 

8-1 after the second. He's landed a bunch of pitty-pat one two's and a few decent body shots. The african guys isn't that good. Pretty uneventful fight so far.

 

african just got an 8 count.

 

final score 14-2 for little.

 

Cheers O Money

They just showed the Flemming fight. Was a really entertaining one, the French guy was a breath a fresh air to what has mostly been a hugfest of an olympics so far.

 

Oh-man I know. I've been watching a live feed from the boxing venue so Ive seen all the fights and moszt of the 57 Kg fights were huge/WWE wrestling fests. Pathetic. The last two hours has been pretty entertaining stuff though. Mostly 60 kg fighters. Its a better division.

 

I dont like it half the time, but you do see some great defensive skills (Mostly head movement and foot movement related) on display.
