    I can't watch Olympic boxing, the scoring system makes me mad, i mean i just start filing sick and have to change the channel.

    Maybe you should figure it out instead.

    CNBC is repeating the exact same match they showed 15 minutes ago. Nice producing, idiots.

    I always here he's one of the top p4p amateurs. What you never see though is a top 10 p4p list in the amateurs or anything like that. Anybody who knows about the amateurs care to compile one for me? :D

    I wouldn't have a clue but I'd reckon Raushee Warren and probably Zou Shiming would join him in a top 10 p4p list.

    Eh, a rough one I would have Korobov in the top 5. Rau'shee Warren, Shiming, Tischenko, Gavin, Andrade, Selimov, Vodopoyanov would all be up there too.

    Cheers. :good

    I thought about Andrade aswell, that guys pretty huge. Shiming looks almost impossible to outpoint aswell and Warren is just a beast. :D

    Professional scoring is bad but the amateur system is beyond ****ed.

    1-0 after 3 rounds.:huh

    Maybe their buzzers are malfunctioning?

    Andrade isn't just huge; he's talented and fast. Really good boxer all around.

    No, they're following the scoring criteria extremely closely and strictly. When I officiate I'm a points Nazi too; rarely do I have scored going past 20 points.

    Very possible. There's very few I would say are better than him; he's just a great boxer.

    I know, but with so few points awarded you wouldn't think these guys are throwing a thousand punches a round.

    I'll watch more closely and see if some of the scoring is reasonable.
