Official 2012 Olympic Boxing Discussion Thread

bangla you need to calm down , my parents are not polish and I was born in manhattan.

 

Definately. He's very bad. Sapiyev is one of the most experienced boxers of the whole championship.

 

So we could be looking at a Sapiyev vs. Vikas semis? :think (as much as Spence got screwed, I wasn't overly awed by the Russian against an inferior opponent much more than the Indian against Spence..)

 

Too bad that corrupted decisions prevented us from so many good match ups. With Gaucha, Khitrov and Savon still in the mix, the tournament would have definitely much more flavor. :verysad:boxer

I still enjoy it though

 

I'm white, why are you so embarassed by your roots?

Crying about Britian everyday isnt going help your inferiority complex

 

Oh ****, I just remembered that Vikas over Spence wasn't even the first case of an Indian boxer getting the nod over an American who most felt deserved it more.

Gausha vs. Singh wasn't as bad, but still kinda bad. :deal

 

My bet is that we see Sapiyev vs Zamkovoy. Vikas is strong but limited. Zamkovoy has a lot of good boxing inside, he just doesn't let it out all the time. He's not always looking impressive, but he can be hard to beat.

On the other side of the draw I think we'll see Shelestyuk vs Evans in the semis. Shelestyuk should grab that one if he beats the judges.

 

****ing bull**** that Spence got eliminated.


Sapiyev looked nice in there and so did the Irishman Conlan. Sapiyev has that asian slickness.

I saw a match on YT earlier between Spence and Sapiyev from I think the WC in Baku last year and Spence certainly handled himself extremely well against the older and much more experienced Kazakh. I really think a lot of these matches were decided before the games even began, going to whichever countries were willing to pay top dollar for their medals.

 

Payback for you guys dispelling the Indians (now called Native Amerians) from their land.

AIBA rules changes:

As of 2013, headgear is being taken away and they're adopting a professional style ten point must system.

Basically what we've already gotten a preview of with the World Series of Boxing.

 

Did the entire UK drop out of the 3rd grade?

 

Good analysis, thanks.
