    Did Usyk sign the same contract as Lomachenko, i'm pretty sure Woodhall said he intended to turn pro.

    Yeah it's a damn shame, the guy is a killer and would've likely been in the Gold medal match beating down Murata if he wasn't robbed against Ogogo. The biggest disappointment of the games for me.

    Yeah. Usyk and Lomachenko especially would liven up the pro ranks, especially with gold medal credentials fast-tracking their careers.

    Gvozdyk and Khytrov (both robbed) would have been nice additions as well.

    Berinchyk to a lesser extent, and maybe Shelestyuk at Euro level at WW/JMW. Ischchenko, meh.

    Russo's size and style is better suited for the pros. He could be a terror at cruiser.

    It is a pro contract that Usyk and Lomachenko signed, with APB. That's the new professional league from AIBA being launched next year.

    NBC is showing a replay of Joshua vs. Dychko, which happened 24 hours ago. :lol:

    They're probably only doing this at Teddy Atlas' request so people can hear him cheerlead for Joshua (who he's been trumpeting for months)

    It would be one thing if this was British television...but to randomly show one semifinal bout after the day's gold match coverage? Yeah, they're trying to build Joshua up for a pro debut on NBC and probably later dates on ESPN2.

    He'd be completely gassed after 5 rounds.

    Usyk maybe would be a decent pro, contender level or so, but i dont see anything special in him, Chahkiev looked much better when he won Olimpics and also I believe Beterbiev won his fight with Usyk and should be Olimpic champion

    :nod

    Are they showing more medal ceremonies on the European broadcast?

    NBC here in the USA has been showing a replay of Joshua vs. Dychko, and is now showing commercials.

    Usyk looks a little like Igor Vovchanchyn.

    By the way I thought Michael Hunter defeated by a narrow Beterbiev who won Usyk fight
