World Championships 09

[JMac]

It's going to be a rematch of the Olympics 91+ kg match between Cammarelle of Italy and Zhang of China in the finals of the worlds. Cammarelle won 1-0. Must of been an exciting match to watch We'll see how much Zhang's training in the US paid off since it looks like he is going pro with the Duva's with Al Mitchell and Charles Mooney training him. I guess Zhang will bypass the WSB.

Wow. How the hell is Coach Mooney ending up training Zhang?

I don't know but I read it in an article that was posted on the home page of boxrec about how Dino Duva came to the Olympics in Beijing to scout and established a relationship with the Chinese boxing federation and how svereral of them will be signing with him as pro's. They had Zhang working out with Lou Duva along with Al and Charles. Mooney does work more with pros now then he does with amateurs.

JMac
Thank you for ur reply, do you agree with my favourites for 11 weights categories? What is your predictions for the final.

I was surprised that Pedraza beat Selimov 9-5 and Nevin gave Abzalimov a close bout 5-4.
My picks:
48 Ayrapetyan RUS over Purevdorj MGL
51 I would like to see McWilliams win from PR but it will be Aloyan RUS
54 Abzalimov RUS over Dalakliev BUL
57 Lomachenko UKR over Vodopiyanov RUS
60 Valentino ITA over Pedraza PUR only because home team always gets gift decisions
64 Goemez USA over Iglesias CUB
69 Zamkovoy RUS over Culcay-Keth GER
75 Kumar IND over Hakobyan ARM
81 Beterbiev RUS over Rasulov UZB
91 Acosta CUB over Usyk UKR
91+ Cammarelle ITA over Zhang CHN

yeah! McWiliams made it to the finals too

[JMac]

yeah! McWiliams made it to the finals too

I made my predidctions after the 1st session was over and McWilliams had not boxed yet. They are boxing the 2nd session now and McWilliams did win 9-7 and I was wrong on the 2nd bout with the Russian Aloyan losing 8-7 to Nyambayar of Mongolia. So hopefully McWilliams will win the finals.They are boxing the 3rd bout now.

Yeah! Wish him luck for me, if you get the chance.

The Camarelle match lasted all of 10 seconds. One left cross, an eight count, and it was over.

[NYboxing]

Frankie Gomez up 2-0 after the first round.

[NYboxing]

Gomez scores a point late, tied at five after two rounds.

Kevin Rivers was the national champ and that was who was picked. Whatever you heard must of been wrong about him not going.

[NYboxing]

gomez moves onto the finals with a hard fought, 8-7 win.

The result only said 1-0 not RSC, RSCH or KO. Not bad one punch, one win.

He did not box in Beijing Olympics.

From AIBA website:

The first super-heavyweight clash, between Olympic champion Roberto Cammarelle and Viktar Zuyeu of Belarus, was ended by the Italian in the first minute with a single straight left.

The damaging left jab destroyed his opponent completely and after the mandatory eight count Zuyeu's coach indicated with the white towel thez had seen enough. After the bout Cammarelle called his devastating left-hander a "Game Over" punch. In tomorrow's final he will meet Roman Kapitonenko of Ukraine, a surprisingly comfortable winner over Olympic silver medallist Zhilei Zhang.

Damn, I thought it would be few more years down the road before I became punch drunk but your right, Zhang lost. I read the results wrong. I guess that training in the US did not pay off.

He did not box in Beijing Olympics.

I guess that is why he did not box in the Olympics. I never heard of him before. Mongolia has been producing some good boxers lately. They had 3 in the semi's of this tournament with two advancing to the finals.

The report about Cammarelle's bout says it was a left jab. He is a southpaw so my guess is that he threw a left cross. That is his money punch as it is the same punch he KO'd the Cuban with in the Italy vs Cuba dual this year. Cammarelle obviously has some power. You can see that a lot of the opponents don't want to exchange with him. He is a big, strong, technically skilled SHW. He isn't super fast nor light on his feet, but don't get caught by one of his power shots.

Here's the schedule for the gold medal round tomorrow:

http://88.85.4.2/results-daily.fwx?day= ... ion=&name=

Russia has 6 boxers remaining.

Ukraine, Cuba, Uzbekstan, Italy, Mongolia and Puerto Rico have 2 each.

Four other countries have one fighter remaining: USA, Bulgaria, Germany, and Armenia.

[crusader]

Tunney what time do the fights start at Vancouver time? I have been mixed up by the time differences and missed out on some of the sessions.

Yes, it was a left cross. Strange that they could get that wrong on the AIBA website...

[Onekrazyrican]

Willie's fight is coming up next! Go Puerto Rico!!!

[Onekrazyrican]

McWilliams Arroyo joins Wilfredo Gomez as Puerto Rico's only world amateur champions! Hopefully Jose Pedraza joins them in a few minutes!
