    I think every male English boxer (no disrespect to the females, I know little about them) has the potential to medal. At their best McGrail, Pat McCormack and Whittaker could take Gold.

    Hopefully members of Team Scotland meet the English for an auld enemy clash at some point.

    I have no knowledge of the women either tbf, except for Suny Edwards tries to graft Sandy Ryan on twitter. I'd expect the first two to win gold, from what ive seen of Whittaker, he has bundles of talent but seems to lack concentration sometimes and think thats what cost him against Khyzniak, although theres no shame at all in that.

    on paper though, the whole team should at least medal

    Yeah Whittaker certainly has the talent.... This stage should show what potential he has for the future.

    I really like the look of the McCormacks. Same with McGrail.

    I’m sure it’s on BBC, it’s free in UK if you’re from UK and can stream live off BBC iPlayer
