The article is more than just an anti-doping test waived. It is an investigation about WADA and Germany not complying with WADA Code. The anti-doping test was required for this title fight and the manager/promoter for the German woman was allowed to waive the test. However, even if she did take the...

Perea is in the same sort of situation that Dawejko was earlier in his career. I think this is an interesting match and I hope there will be fotage to be able to gauge the progress (if any) of youngster Perea.

How the hell can he be ducking him if Lara isn't a mandatory for any of his belts? If Lara wants a beating all he has to do move up to 160 and become a mandatory and I'm more than certain that Triple G will oblige him. At this point, like the article states, Lara has nothing to offer Triple G. This...

It's definitely a fight I'd like to see and Lara is probably best equipped to handle GGG at 154. But I don't think the fight is so overdue that it can be called ducking yet. GGG seems like he might be the type to fight all his mandatories instead of giving up belts. So maybe Lara's best bet is to b...

Nothing wrong with his voice. Regular finnish hangover.

Staying on the topic of this fight though, I wonder if Sturm/Murray/Korobov all turned down offers. Sturm is trying to get Sergio to Germany, Murray is busy (Spada) and besides can't get a visa for USA, Korobov is Mandatory to Quillin. Edit: ops, missed about 25 posts in this thread. Mine is likely...

It would be nice to get some real insight on this. Much of the rest of the world doesn't consider WSB professional. ABC does, but why?

Edit: What I mean is that WSB boxers do not have pro licenses. (or do they?)

They did the same thing with electronic/open scoring since they knew the score they costed the last round.They should not have open scoring. I dont like open scoring either. But two closely lost rounds with points scoring can more easily be turned around than with 10 point must if 10-8 rounds are a...

I'm not particularly happy about the way they have implemented this scoring system (judging from Minsk and what I saw from Giraldo Corvova Cardin). 10-8 rounds are too rare so that boxers often just coast after having bagged the two first rounds. I don't think I saw a single bout where someone would...

Thanks for posting.

Some of the Cuba vs Cuba matches seemed a bit like sparring to me.
First time I saw Toirac (finally). Didn't quite meet my expectations and he was boxing surprisingly dirty.

Havana.

Missed this was happening. Thanks. Looking at the participant list, I see a few interesting things about the cubans. Larduet has moved to +91 and enters along with national champ Toriac. Savon has moved down to 91 where he has Perot as competition for the spot in the worlds. Has anyyone seen Toriac ...

I have searched and searched but cant seem to find any reference to who was competing at what times (Day/Evening)? There only seems to be information as to who competed by date only, but on many dates there were competitions held during the Day and then again in the Evening, so my question is how c...

I saw a guy the other night who was 8-2 and they said his two losses were in the "World Series of Boxing" I didn't know those fights counted on your Pro Record until then. Might make a few more guys a little more hesitant to compete in it, as losing to an Elite amateur is a lot more likel...

Many thanks!

Is there footage available for this anywhere? Surely this tournament is one television!?

I hope there will be some sort of resistance against scrapping the headgear. Not particularly interested in seeing a bunch of WOs in tournaments. I would go on a rant on the upcoming rule changes here but I'll refrain from that and just say that I personally fear that the direction boxing is taking...

Certainly there must be more detailed criterias than that? No criteria available at this time. Hopefully we'll know next year. :zzz: :witzend: I hope there will be some sort of resistance against scrapping the headgear. Not particularly interested in seeing a bunch of WOs in tournaments. I would go...

If amateur boxing criteria stays the same, the pro enthusiasts will just have to live with the fact that the scoring is totally opposite that of pro scoring and quit whining. If not, then ya'll are totally vindicated - but you'll still find something to be upset about. :box: AFAIK the intention of ...

Apparently Khytrov and Michael Hunter were victims of addition errors, and should've won on countback. http://www.badlefthook.com/2012/8/2/3215136/olympics-boxing-2012-ogogo-vs-khytrov-countback-score-miscalculated-controvery-london http://www.london2012.com/boxing/event/men-heavy-91kg/match=bxm091...

Good showing from him so far. He's up against Lomachenko next. Good luck.
