The WSB site additionally discusses the Italians and how Cammarelle would fit flawlessly into their association's structure. How? He is a super-heavyweight and the WSB has substantial, light-overwhelming, center, light, and minor. Is the WSB going to have the heavyweight class be everything more th...

Cruiserweight is one of the most stacked divisions in boxing not shallow and light heavy is strong too and has the best prospects in boxing

When was Kenny Egan #2? In 2012? Hell he was No 1 for many years including Beijing when he got robbed for the Olympic gold. I know he went through some problems after Beijing. Back in '00 he came to Baltimore to a show I put together that was supposed to be the Holy Family club vs Baltimore except ...

ya Clarke is a good fighter, unfortunetly he doesn't get the opportunity with Joshua and joyce being ahead of him now and in the past. ya Ireland never really focus on this its a bit low level, Kenny egan won gold at the last one and was our number 2, beat guys who went onto the Olympics. I think t...

91+ Fraser Clarke from England is big and has good skills. I'm not sure of his age but I think he is young. Keep an eye out for him. He is in the finals for the Rio test event. Rio test events don't usually have great quality Clarke is alright but joe joyce is the British number one so Clarke doesn...

And it's ok for Tony Blair to send UK troops into Iraq on basis they have Weapons of mass destruction, when they didn't. Or Cameron telling UK we have to bomb Assad in Syria in 2013, then help him in 2015. But when a boxer says women belong in the kitchen.... The assad situation has made the west l...

Oh and Nevin's won gold, got a walk over in the final

What do you think of nevin beating the current world youth champion Mike ? And Nevin is underage next year too. I know you didn't have him too high on hour ratings

No he qualified legitimately no favoritism at all. He was lucky selimov and alvarez qualified because that mean that carlos who finished like 4th or 5th in the wsb qualified Same thing could happen with Ireland Stephen donnelly at 69kg Russia qualified to boxers and if they choose zamkovoi then donn...

apparently you win the qualification place in a weight class for your country but if Irvine was to now qualify there would be a box off I guess

Mike, what you think of the judging in the finals? And how come Russia had a full team? judging in a few fights was off eg 52kg and overall seemed to be slightly pro Russian Russia didn't ratify there places from the euro games which meaned they were aloud send a near full squad apart from 56kg whe...

no Antonio Vargas? his the only one that's any good Vargas didn't box in the tournament that determined who went to this tournament. He did win the US Championships to qualify for the US Olympic trials but Brent Venegas is pretty good also. its still pretty ridiculous that they wont send him now, h...

When the Americas Qualifying tournament starts presumably most of the Cubans will be absent having already qualified through the APB/WSB. IMO the USA can field a much stronger team than in the PanAms Do you know how it works? Can the US, for example, send Ruben Villa or Darmani Rock to the AIBA Wor...

USA Team Melik Elliston Antonio Vargas Francisco Martinez Carlos Balderas Luis Feliciano Brian Ceballo Anthony Campbell Steve Nelson Cam F Awesome Marlen Esparza Claressa Shields Starts on the 18th I believe Outside of Vargas, the rest of the lot would be lucky to pull in a bronze at the 2016 Olymp...

There are a lot of people bragging up Jordan Shimmel and will continue to do so everyone has an off night and I still think he's the greatest! People where saying he was the best American cruserweight :shame: I saw at least 3 American cruserweights on the same card that maybe better than him. if yo...

the problem is one federation getting 3 bits at the cherry every time. If this wasn't a event that leads onto oympic qualifier then it would be ok but not for this. Not unless all 3 countires decide to compete separately in the Olympics what would you think if Russia was allowed to send 3 boxers in ...

its actually a great thing that they have finally made GB combine there teams, its a ridiculous advantage to be able to send 3 boxers in each weight class to Olympics qualifiers and since these European championships act as qualifiers for the world championships which in turn act as a qualifier for...

I remember I got a very hard time on here for apparently 'trolling' dennis when in reality I was just shocked at the stuff he was coming out with. I think last weekend has validated my opinions on the matter. I never said anything bad about Jordan and actually liked him but some of the stuf dennis ...
