    Was Santos the one addicted to sweets? Yeah I doubt he made it.

    This is the Cuban boxing squad listed on Wikipedia, not sure how accurate it is:

    Yosvany Veitia
    Robeisy Ramírez
    Lázaro Álvarez
    Yasniel Toledo
    Roniel Iglesias
    Julio César la Cruz
    José Larduet
    Erislandy Savón

    The only names from the film I can find are Cristian Martinez, Santos Urguelles and Junior Menendez. Martinez looked pretty special. Doesn't look like any of them made it.

    Medzhidiv lost his fat but not the power.

    Yeah the one they kept calling fat for being a tiny bit above the weight, poor kid :lol: I remember Christian was supposed to be the best kid in the film so if he didn't make it maybe none of them did.

    Russia looking good for 2-0 vs USA right now

    If this were a pro bout I'd have Breazale up 20-18 over Omarov.

    Dominic is keeping that stick on Magomed's face, snapping the 1-2, and blocking a lot of the Russian's sloppy hooks or diving in past them to clinch.

    Clear power edge to Omarov, though.

    ? Omarov landed more punches, the harder punches and hurt Breazale multiple times. Pro or Am Omarov won wide. If it were pro Breazele wouldn't have have the ref step in when he got hurt and was given standing 8's, Omarov would have followed up and put him down hard.

    Prospects look bleak for American HWs if Breazale is the best they could get for the Olympics.

    Really? I would have the Russian winning using any scoring method tbh.

    I saw Breazale landing cleaner with the 1-2 and Omarov doing a lot of heavy but sloppy swinging inside, thudding his wrists and forearms against Breazale's head in the clinches but not so much the legal scoring area of his knuckles. Omarov did much better when using his strength to push Breazale back and land a straight punch through the guard. When he gets hook happy his work is ridiculously messy.

    He did have Breazale on ***** St. in the third.
