Olympic qualification event

So if my calculations are correct one more win for Davey and Maxwell to qualify.Maxwell will have to say his prayers but hopefully he will beat the Turkish ****.:good

 

The Turk is fighting right now so he needs to win now first, hopefully we will get biased judging in London!

EDIT: also yes you are right, get into the semi's in 60kg and you qualify.

 

How many points do you get for a knockdown in AM?

 

No points. On the other hand, if you get three knockdowns or standing eights in one round, or four in total - the fight is over.

 

The boxers need to reach the final, or be beat by the eventual winner in the semi to qualify I believe

 

Charlie Edwards loses 17-12, second boxer we have out of the competition

 

No worrys mate:good

 

Irish Boxers in action today in Quarter finals of olympic qualifier.

60kg: David Oliver Joyce (Ireland) v Evaldas Petrauskas(Lithuania) around 1.30pm

69kg: Adam Nolan (Ireland) v Tamerlan Abdullayer(Azerbaijan) 2.15pm

49kg: Paddy Barnes (Ireland) v Stefan Caslarov (Romania) 5.15pm

91kg: Tommy McCarthy (Ireland) v Josepf Darmos (Hungary) 7pm

If Joyce and Barnes win their bouts they've qualified. Nolan needs to reach final in order to qualify and McCarthy needs to win the tournament.

 

If Josh Taylor wins then I think he qualifies, Maxwell has a Turkish opponent so its unlikely he'll win.

Callum Smith & Ogogo need to get to the final to qualify, ****** Baister has to win the final.

 

It is **** the way that Turk is going to win no matter how well Sam does, we could get at least 3 qualifiers here.

Hopefully a minimum of 2 will qualify anyway.

 

I think every Turkish guy in a close fight has won by 2 points

Its the same all over the world, hopefully that means in the Olympics the British & Irish lads should do well

 

Ireland has 3 qualified already, if we can get another 3 men and Katie taylor qualified, I think we have a good shout of 1 or more gold...

Also, I hear that Joe Ward still has an outside shot of qualifying despite being knocked out of the tournament earlier this week.

 

Katie could probably fight at all 3 women weights and win all 3 golds, she is a monster.

How does he have an outside chance of qualifying?

 

I'm not totally clued in, and im only going by what others are saying. But apparently there is a wildcard way in. I'll see if I can find a link to explaining it properly for you...

Edit, Katie also has to qualify still, and only has 1 shot at it. Hope she doesnt get screwed over or bottles it...

 

This is the requirement for wildcard entry.

the olympic tripartite invitation for 81kg place for a developing nation in europe cant go to a european nation as none meet the criteria hence the 81kg place goes back to the aiba who redistribute it to the highest ranked 81kg fighter who didnt qualify at the worlds 2011 who is JOE WARD ...
