    To be honest the scoring makes no sense to me maybe it was a robbery, I don't even try to score the bouts at all.

    Usually in a given match-up it's the Mongolian who's "from the middle of nowhere". :think

    ****ing...Mauritius? What the hell? :lol:

    I mean according to Google it's a real place, a bit east of Madagascar...but how did they qualify for an Olympic spot?

    For the Petrauskas fans you should also enjoy Berinchyk coming up after the next bout. He's not a straight brawler like Petro but hes ultra aggressive and relentless. He has a swarmers volume but punches like a slugger. He beat the **** out of Stalker at Worlds.

    I'm really glad Uranchimeg vs. Colin is over. :yep Horn vs. Houya can only be an improvement.

    It has been a French colony... but it has been colonized by the Dutch too. Hence the name Mauritius (Prince Maurits) :yep

    Mongols are typically reliable. (Choi, Shinny, et al)
