    Thanks for that pow, I find it really difficult getting to see the GB fights during Olympics. If you could keep this timetable updated , I'd be really grateful even if no one else is

    Worth noting the BBC only have two simultaneous streams available at any one time so if you want to watch all the boxing your best bet is on Discovery+ (which is seven quid a month).

    Keyshawn Davis will face the number 1 French seed Oumiha who signed with Frank Warren in the round of 16 if he gets through the preliminaries. Luke McCormack got hard done by as he will face the Cuban Andy Cruz who is one of the favourites in the round of 16.

    Ben Whitakker's route to the semis looks nice but he'll have to face the Kazakh who is ranked number 1, should definitely bag the bronze.

    Big Frazer Clarke could face Jalolov in the Semis which will be a cracker.

    If you have Eurosport on Sky/Virgin then I wouldn’t subscribe to Discovery+ to clarify.

    Mcgrail struggled in the Qualifiers too, disappointing considering he medalled at virtually every other tournament.

    Pat McCormack and Ben Whitakker can take gold for us.

    My gold medal predictions were:
    Flyweight: ZOIROV Shakhobidin (Uzbekistan)

    Featherweight: MIRAZIZBEK Mirzakhalilov (Uzbekistan)

    Lightweight: ANDY Cruz (USA)

    Welterweight: Pat McCormack (Great Britain)

    Middleweight: Oleksandr Khyzhniak (Ukraine)

    Light Heavyweight: Arlen Lopez (Cuba)

    Heavyweight: Muslim Gadzhimagomedov (Russia)

    Super Heavyweight: Bakhodir Jalolov (Uzbekistan)
