First European games. Heavyweight semifinals: Gevorg Manukian beat Josip Bepo Filipi via tko 1,Filipi suffered deep cut.Complete beatdown by Gevorg. Abdulkadir Abdullayev beat Sadam Magomedov via two round to one.Tough fight for both.Sadam stunned his opponent one time in 1st,two times in second,and one in third round.Abdullaev was more active and was relying on combination punching.Sadam tried to knock his opponent out but wasn't too active to do it.Most activity came from him in 3 round last 15 seconds.Abdullaev was more elusive,evading punches and keeping distance,but still was hit by plenty Magomedov's punches. P.S.I doubt Abdulaev wil win this competition.Manukian is too good for him,I think.I think it will be 2/1 sd decision for Gevorg. Superheavyweight final. Joe Joyce beat Gasan Gimbatov 3/0 or 2 rd to 1rd.Joyce lost first but came back strong as Gasan was gassing out in 2rd and 3d.Gimbatov and gold medal winner Joe Joyce have qualified for Amateur World Championships in Doha.Skip to 8:51:50,https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1lGVeRAasw.
No wonder for me.I always thoght he is better than Parker.Parker lost to Heredia(22 years old) and Abdulaev in not so good fashion.
Solid skills, but should have been DQ'd. What the hell was he doing, hitting Pettaway long time after he went down.
Man , that was some power , he has eye pleasing pro style, needs to step up. He beat Pulev in Beijing in 2008, and then Pulev got his shot for the world title in 5 years , and Rivas still fighting club fighters.
to set things right,he was injured before he boxed in his last three fights and before that he had serious eye injury,in all he has taken two years off
Rivas always fights dirty,he has that natural agression,without his natural agression he would be worse as a boxer

Other two quarterfinals today. Gevorg Manukian beat Darren O Neal via 3/0,O Neal tried but never came close to winning.Manukian was more elusive and faster boxer.He started his attacks from jab,that helped him a lot.I don't he can beat Abdullayev in a possible final.He doesn't move his head and isn't fast.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xd70RLZEnL4.Skip to 1:40:30. Josip Bepo Filipi beat Bahram Muzaffer via 3/0,I actually think Bahram won.Bahram outpunched Filipi during first two rounds and slipped punches from Bepo well.Filipi wasn't too active during the fight.He pressed in that last round hard but was cut bad.Easy win for Manukian in semis.P.S.Bahram impressed me today.Good beggining for European Amateur Championships in august.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xd70RLZEnL4.Skip -1:21:18. Heavyweight semifinals on 26th June.

Tony Yoka lost to Joe Joyce via 2/1 score.Skip to -18:22.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jn3lsUawyAA P.S.Medzhidov is injured and out of the tournament.He didn't qualify for Rio.Hrgovic qualify as only one from WSB. Gimbatov/Joyce is good final.Gimbatov has power and Joyce is too open.And Joyce will be the taller man and has experience to stun or even stop Gimbatov with his non stop punching style.But I favor Gimbatov in final.He doesn't leave himself open to punches and is good mover,rather quick for his size,have good balance and packs a punch.
