    To be fair I'd say this is by far the worst Olympics ever, in terms of judging, some sickening and crazy decisions,

    Butdee one of the worst robberies I've ever seen, a kenya i think vs a chinese fighter, did anyone see the toledo vs mccormack fight yesterday? one judge actually gave mccormack every round?

    unbelievable and embarrassing I live in the uk, but toledo was first to the punch every time, was more active, was in control in every round, it was very easy to score, and toledo clearly won every round comfortable he was barely hit

    Then the french 60kg oumiha got a dec yesterday he shouldn't have

    Iglesias, went down 3-0 to the uzb boxer, a truly disgraceful decision, it almost like the judges are scoring rounds for coming forward even when your being picked of, I know shane mcguigan and liam smith were disgusted at this decision and the Savon levitt fight, where savon outboxed levitt landed the cleaner blows, somehow they always find a way to deny savon, when he is clearly the best 91kg in the world, same with alvarez

    worst Olympics I've ever seen

    Robson Conceição watch this at 10:27 hitting the bag, how on earth a guy with no technique get's a decision over alvarez with all that talent and skill, it was a close fight but alvarez has three wins over robson, and was the far more effective fighter, another poor decision, and they've robbed the best boxer in alvarez of a gold medal, 4 years of work taken away by bad judging same with savon yet again

    Yeh that aswell, can't remember who iglesias fought in the worlds? was it the uzb again and one of the worst robberies ever? god help this guy, he was going to win gold again and they've taken it away 4 years, they don't like cubans these judges or it's just complete luck of what judges you get

    I thought he was going to get Benchabla out of there at one point. Had he managed to do so, he obviously would've recorded stoppage victories over all three of his opponents in these games and they're all legit guys.

    Niyazmbetov is quality and I'm looking forward to that one.

    La Cruz should be too skillful and elusive for Buatsi (if Buatsi gets past Niyazmbetov that is) but, like I said, I wouldn't be surprised if he did pull it off even though I favour La Cruz.

    He looks kind of soft to me. Like he still has a layer of puppy fat.

    OK that makes more sense, as awkward, strong and ungainly as Mina is, I was still very surprised to hear he'd managed to record a win over someone of La Cruz's skill level.

    Is this directed at me? I've not seen the fight where Ramirez beat La Cruz.

    Don't be silly. He's been great to watch but there have been numerous others too.

    Michael Conlan is an absolute class act, I think he'll win the Val Barker trophy hes the P4P Number 1 Amateur :deal

    BAHAHA Ramirez already has a very solid win over conlan, and i would have favoured butdee over conlan aswell, think yeraliev, ramirez and stevenson all soundly beat conlan

    yeraliev also easily beat conlan and outboxed him in the wsb, no way would conlan beat ramirez unless they rob ramirez

    :rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

    ramirez' win was 4 years ago.. Conlan has improved and won everything since, his form the last couple of years has been incredible.. he'll school everyone wait and see... only corrupt judges can stop him.

    Conlan is very versatile,skilled in every department. I don't think there is a fighter in the tournament with better 'overall' skills than Conlan personally.

    I'm irish, conlan will never be as skilled as ramirez, and already 2 years older was schooled by ramirez, i think the uzb boxer actually beat him in the world final and would beat him again aswell

    Conlan in the worlds had very close fights with the brazilian, who acutally could have won, stevenson beat the brazilian alot easier, and the only reason conlan won gold is because andy cruz the cuban was dsigracefully robbed vs the belarussian boxer richie woodhall was in disbelief over that, andy cruz would have 100% outboxed conlan and beat him easily and I'm irish

    :lol::lol::lol::lol::patsch that's maybe the worst comment I've ever read, your trolling, you couldn't even put colan top 10 as the most skilled, when there's la cruz who is number one, guys like iglesias, yeraliev who schooled conlan, almkhanully, lopez, ramirez, dusmatov, argilagos, savon, alvarez all these guys are levels more talented than conlan technically that's a fact,

    If ramirez who's easily beat conlan, and will again, and yeraliev who also easily outboxed him did that, you can't even say your the best at your weight let alone even mention p4p
