You beat me in the Olympics, but we never met in the pro ranks.

    We share an opponent, we both lost to him, he was my final fight and you were his.

    I won bronze and you won gold, but never had the medal to show for it.




    Who are the three boxers involved?


    First time doing this and I don't want to make it too easy.

    :blurp

    Antol Kocsis, Carlo Covagnioli and Emile Pladner, But Kocsis fought a draw against Pladner.

    Jones didn't win a Gold Medal, he was robbed as he won the Silver.

    Yes, and not technically right. One of the worst decisions ever but so was Henry Tillman's joke gold medal in 1984.

    I am pretty sure he is talking about Woodhall, Jones and Calzaghe, But he worded it wrong, or did he, But everything else fits.

    Taken from Wiki;

    He was never awarded the actual medal because of the robbery. Thus why I said ' never had the medal to show for it '.

    Am I allowed to trick you lot like that?

    :think :hey

    No problem!

    Actually Jones was the 1st one I thought of But the only thing I read was "I won bronze and you won gold." I should have read the rest.
