Official Olympic Boxing (and possibly other fighting sports) thread

Mr. Small is another 75kg guy. He and I are going to beat the **** out of each other if we meet at an international dual....or the Olympics.

 

Count me in then. :happy

Edit: Do any of you guys have Facebook?

 

I do. Here, let me PM you and we'll stop hijacking the thread.

 

All right!

 

So what about this weather than?
That's some ****.

 

It's the Chinese's fault. Aside from influencing the officials, they also influence the weather with all their pollution.

 

Holy ****, Cammarelle was awsome, beat the **** out of Zhang,

i hope he goes pro soon

 

No Boxing Gold for Cuba?!!?!?

4 Silver
4 Bronze

 

NBC only showed flyweight, light heavy and super heavy today. Egan got jobbed and Cammarelle did look good. Any news as to where he'll fight pro? I'd love to see him come to the states like Vidoz did a few years back.

 

Oh, and scoring. Something obviously needs to be done. There were so many unscored landed blows, it's laughable.

Go back and compare the scoring from Athens, almost all fights were in the teens and 20's on scoring, with many in the 30's and 40's. Virtually none of the Beijing bouts has scoring totals even near 20.
