    Honestly, that's probably a lot better than expected for Jones.

    Uzbeks have five men left. Host country France has two.

    Every other nation? Just one.

    Funny how that worked out!

    I felt Jones landed more or less all the meaningful shots throughout. Seen very little in the first from Muydinkhujaev imo yet he somehow got it 4 - 1.

    I was hopeful things had been cleaned up a bit since Tokyo was actually decent, but I guess boxing will be boxing.

    Verde Álvarez is the rare pure banger / pressure fighter (he is Mexican, after all :D) to achieve amateur boxing success at a high level. Richardson is a spritely stick and move boxer.

    Scrumptious match-up (more than you'd think for southpaw versus southpaw). :thumbsup:

    It wasn't that egregious of a decision. Honestly the Tokyo one and this one in Paris the judging has been better than previous ones.

    Judges go 3-2 in favor of Verde Álvarez.

    Richardson got outhustled.

    Verde Álvarez has serious power, you can tell by how Richardson is reacting to even grazing and partially blocked shots.

    On a side note. Why did they remove the purple color of the ring? The entire time it was purple, but now it's blue.
