Official 2012 Olympic Boxing Discussion Thread

Gvozdyk's protest was denied. Still can't believe they signed with these AIBA assholes. Worst news ever.

 

i know
was looking forward to seeing lomachenko in pro's

 

I hate AIBA. This won't be the last time they get screwed over by them.

Anyone heard anything about Petrauskas' "loss" yesterday? Didn't they also file a protest?

 

Haven't read anything. Who do you like for Val Barker? Mekhontsev, Sapiyev, Ramirez should be top considerations imo but i expect they'll hand it to Joshua disgrace that AIBA is.

 

I know.... My pick would be Mekhontsev. He's already beaten three top contenders in explosive and action packed fights, where he has showcased technical skills and killer instinct. A perfect combination.

John Joe Nevin could also be a contender.

does it have to be the men?

have a feeling katie taylor will get it. it's her performances that solidified the the reason why womens boxing was a success. when she tried to compete in the mens world championsips

no?



are we all in agreement tonight that russo gets crushed. i hate that ****er.....****ing hate him.

 

:think

 

Ireland square off against England tonight through combat. I hope the result will be a fair decision!

 

Rau'shee "O and 3" Wárren will probably never shed that Olympic blemish, whatever he accomplishes as a pro :!:

 

I can't believe I missed this the first time. Dissection is from Sweden, not Norway.

 

W@rren should have turned pro after his first Olympics. He could have already won a title or two by now.

Why is his name censored?

 

He definately should have, cause although he has obvious flaws flyweight division is far from being one the strongest divisions. :yep

Because of some promoter who's name should not be called upon.
