    Parker could turn in a similar performance

    Yeah no way he should of got the decision in that fight. Bad decisions in amateur boxing are killing the sport, the level of corruption is crazy. No wonder they are looking to strip amateur boxing of it's Olympic status, but if that's whats needed to clean up the sport then it has to be done.

    If only Savon could go pro. Horrible style for any HW and seems like he hits very hard

    Not as bad as Park vs Jones Jr in 88 but still highway robbery.

    His uncle was more lethal. Destroyed a lot of the top ranked professional ranked heavyweight of the 80s and 90s.

    I know. I Feel hadn’t for Savon how he’s come up short in olympics so cant repeat the record but he’s got a hell of an amateur career regardless

    Savon was robbed. Horrible decision.

    It's funny how things like this can change the course of history.

    Joshua goes out in the first round of the Olympics & no-one invests in him afterwards.

    He wouldn't be where he is today if he hadn't got that decision.
