Boxing at Paris 2024 (Les Jeux de la XXXIII Olympiade)

Oh that's right - we're getting a rematch of China vs. Türkiye (like Chang vs. Akbaş) in Wu vs. Çakıroğlu at women's flyweight tomorrow.

 

They've made the North Korean gal squish in between the Chinese and South Korean for a group pic and she looks MISERABLE.

Wishing she had a cyanide pill to bite down on.

 

Last two days of boxing at the Paris Olympics schedule:

• FRIDAY - starting at 2030 local time in Paris (3:30pm EST)
  
  Men's 71kg FINALS: Asadkhuja Muydinkhujaev (UZB) vs. Marco Alonso Verde Álvarez (MEX)
  
  Women's 50kg FINALS: Yu Wu (CHN) vs. Buse Naz Çakıroğlu (TUR)
  
  Men's 92kg FINALS: Loren Berto Alfonso Domínguez (AZE) vs. Lazizbek Hasanjon Ugli Mullojonov (UZB)
  
  Women's 66kg FINALS: Imane Khelif (ALG) vs. Liu Yang (CHN)

• SATURDAY - starting at 2030 local time in Paris (3:30pm EST)
  
  Women's 57kg FINALS: Yu Ting Lin (TPE) vs. Julia Szeremeta (POL)
  
  Men's 57kg FINALS: Abdumalik Anvar O‘g‘li Khalokov (UZB) vs. Munarbek Seiitbek Uulu (KGZ)
  
  Women's 75kg FINALS: Qian Li (CHN) vs. Atheyna Bylon (PAN)
  
  Men's 92+kg FINALS: Bakhodir Jalolov (UZB) vs. Ayoub Ghadfa Drissi El Aissaoui (ESP)
  
  
  Medal Ceremonies to follow after the conclusion of the Men's 92+kg finals to close out boxing at the Olympics

Seven of the remaining eight gold medal bouts involve China (three women) or Uzbekistan (four men). Each country already has one gold medal this week; except those counts to increase by at least one more.

 

Tomorrow's odds:

Muydinkhujaev 4/7
Verde 13/8

Mullojonov 10/11
Alfonso 5/4

Wu 7/2
Çakıroğlu 1/5

Yang 9/2
Khelif 1/8


Both of the Chinese women competing tomorrow are heavy underdogs, but Qian Li will box circles around the Panamanian on Saturday. Bylon had absolutely no business getting past Ngamba; it took some arch shenanigans for it to happen.

 

Dude it was so ****ing funny.
