    99% chance it was a British stoppage.

    Fun fact: Wilder only won a medal because his first opponent was an Algerian bum and his second opponent was a fat Moroccan bum and after beating these pathetic bums he was in already the semis. Wilder got one of the easiest draws in Olympic boxing history to win a medal before Russo put him in his place where he could score only ONE point against the Italian.

    From what I hear even Usyk though Porter should have won granted it was before Usyk started to physically mature.

    Fun fact; people mature at different rates. Longer, taller kids seemingly always take longer to fill out and physically matue than shorter stockier kids.

    But one was already fully grown and fully haired and the other wasn't near the Cruserweight destroyer that he would later become. Maybe Shawn wants to get on that Louis Ortiz diet and try that with Usyk again!! :) My money is on Usyk this time around. Lol

    Fun fact; Usyk got robbed against Russo in that Olympics then Russo went on to dominate Wilder.

    Fun fact: Usyk schooled the current Olympic Silver medalist Super Heavy.

    Hillary is way hotter than Sharapova and she does not need meldonim either. Hillary's cankles are all natural.

    Porter is 30 years old.

    Usyk is 31.

    No "puberty" or "oh Usyk must have been 12." It's just that amateur boxing mean literally nothing in professional boxing.

    And when and where did it happen in 2006? In 2006 Usyk fought at the World Cup in Baku (http://amateur-boxing.strefa.pl/Championships/WorldCup2006.html) vs Lei Yuping and Mohamed Hikal. Most probably, Shawn Porter wasn't even in the US team that year, which consisted of:
    Roberto Ceron,
    Rau Shee Warren,
    Luis Del Valle,
    Danny Garcia,
    Hector Ramos,
    Demetrius Andrade,
    Christopher Downs,
    Adam Willett,
    Jonte Willis

    Actually, it's not that easy for an Ukrainian and an US boxer to converge at one official event — because of the different continents it has to be either a world cup or an Olympics.
