    All those boxers you mention were given gift desitions at one time or another , they're crap , the only good ones were Lomachenko and Khytrov , the rest were **** but the Klitschkos sisters money made sure they won . See you in London . Peace .

    Maybe, this is only 1 event where the juding was not always sound. I still can not beleive the USA only won one bronze.

    It appears that Eastern Euro nations can now medal or win at fly, bantam, or light weight. The below link offers full results. Just click on the weight divisions to the right.

    well russia was the top country last time in 2009
    this time its ukraine

    but yeah european countries are in general good form

    but its the former ussr, that is cleaning everything up lol

    ps europe east or west is from portugal to poland...
    and from those england seemed to the best
    this time not poland etc
    the russian speaking countries are a bit different

    The US has never been that great at amateur boxing. Especially not recently.
