This fight did not take place at the Nationals. This is the Indiana Championship fight that I attended in Indianapolis. The kid got robbed.

Leverage, what was your opinion of that video with Lucies?

The other kid, Wynten Ellis, will be representing Indiana in the USA's. He soundly beat Lucies in the Silver Gloves Championships.

Primp,

I am much more familiar with the pros. That being said, here is my take.
Lucies continued the retreat but was counter punching and scoring in that manner. I don't know if they give as many points for aggression as they do for defense. IF this was a pro bout Lucies clearly would have lost, as power and
sting count more. On "ring generalmanship" Lucies losses again, but in the amateurs is that a weighted factor. I have seen similar fights where the combatant who was the agressor lost on points. One was in Coachella Valley where a heavyweight who I thought clearly one on the same style, but lost on points taught me the "amateur" lesson. And, it is much harder to make a decision watching YOUTUBE than being at ringside.

The biggest difference I had to get used to was that a "touch" is one point and a hammer job is still one point. The "hurt" factor seems to count for nada.

I am not saying Lucies won, just that given the facts of Amateur judging, many other issues come into play that are more subjective.

There are a number of youtube videos of Dorian available. His win at the LA GG's
a knockout vitory.

[!! Shawn]

lol, I filmed and edited that video of Dorian at the LA GG. Any news on if he fought yet tonight?

[Leverage]

Dorian decisioned Dave Thompson from New York Metro Last night.

I am unable to obtain any video or commentary on his last two fights.

He moves into the semi finals tonight.

His opponent was a boxer he has beat three times already and no where near as skilled as Dorian.

[!! Shawn]

No, Zlatko Ledic didn't show up. The guy he knocked out was from the Navy team.

[Leverage]

Tonight Dorian is paired with Paul Parker from Ohio. I understand he is 6' 3" or better.

[Leverage]

Dorian won his match tonight. He will fight in the finals tomorrow evening.

The best to him.

[!! Shawn]

Thank you.

[Leverage]

Dorians opponent will be Jeffrey Spencer.

[primp]

Will Dorian be fighting in the Nationals? He'll find a little competition from Michigan and Ohio that wasn't in the GG's.

Yes he will.

[terrencej]

Nah, the competition will be coming out of Indiana.

[Leverage]

Dorian was successful last night as he won the Championship at #178. Score was 5-0.
He wants to thank everyone for their support, and yes he will compete in the Nationals.
I was able to attent the event and it was terrific to see Dorian
compete and win the belt that has eluded him.

I don't know if they give as many points for aggression as they do for defense.

In amateur boxing, NO points are given for either aggression or defense.
