[scallum]

Do they ever plan on holding Major Tournaments in the Americas ?

[mike222]

They do keep going back to Kazakhstan-it doesnt seem very fair.

[locoxelbox]

It is not about fairness. It is because the money and the public is there. The US held the World Championships in 2007 so it wasn't so long time ago. The 2015 Worlds will be held in Qatar. The candidates must bid for the Championships and it isn't cheap. I think the other candidates who bid were Venezuela, Russia and Thailand.

[scallum]

Right now it seems every major Tournament for Jr boys ,Youth boys ,Girls, Women and Elite men are held in certain part of the planet

[bkawano]

USA-Boxing and the City of Chicago held the Worlds in 2007. All the countries said to this date that was the Best World Championships ever. The Housing was at the Palmer Hilton, and we ate anytime we wanted to at the Buffet there. Lot's of other countries Boxers defected though.

[mike222]

The draw is now on the AIBA website.I am off to study it in depth

[mike222]

Lightflyweight
Scotsman Aqeel Ahmed is in the top quarter and will have to beat a Thai and probably a Puerto Rican to reach the quarter-finals and it looks unlikely he can go further.Leroy Devila and Welsh boxer Ashley Williams are in the second quarter.Davila will have to beat the useful Italian Manuel Cappai early but my tip for Gold Yosvani Veitia will most likely be waiting in the quarters.Jack Bateson has a tough draw with an Armenian and the tough Salman Alizada lurking in the third quarter.
Semi-picks Dusmatov or Galanov/Veitia/Alizada/Flissi or Lu Bin
Flyweight
Malik Jackson should beat an Angolan but will then face Andrew Selby with Ilyas Suleymenov also in that quarter.Paddy Barnes up in weight is likely to meet Charlie Edwards earlier with Uzbekhi Jasurbek Latipov likely to face the winner.
Semi-picks Barnes/Selby/Aloyan/Mamishadze
Bantamweight
Gamal Yafai has a tough draw with an Armenian and an Italian in the early stages and Olympic Champion Ramirez waiting in the quarters.Sean Mcgoldrick is drawn to meet Mongolian Nyambayar and that will be tough.Eduardo Martinez faces useful Turk Selcuk Eker in his first bout with a good Algerian and the quality Robenilson De Jesus next up.Difficult.
Michael Conlan has a tricky path,first up is a beatable Hungarian,then probably Bulgarian Stefan Ivanov and then most likely Russian Vladimir Nikitin
Scotsman Joe Ham has a Turkmeni boxer and then Ukrainian Mykola Butsenko
Semi-Picks
Ramirez/Nyambayar/Butsenko/Conlan or Nikitin
Lightweight
Sean McComb should get through his first bout but Elvin Isayev or Vazgen Safaryants will be next.Scotsman Charles Flynn has Hungarian Miklos Varga in his quarter.Joe Cordina and Kenneth Sims are at the bottom of the draw where two fine boxers await,. Lazaro Estada from Cuba and Uzbekhi Gaibnazarov Looks very difficult
Semi picks Isayev/Polyanski/Abdrakhmanov/Estrada
Light Welter
Josh Taylor should win his opener then will meet the stromg Marat Ashkalov.Sam Maxwell has it tougher first Italian Dario Vangeli and then the Cuban Yasnier Toledo.
Jose Alday,Zack Davies and Ray Moylette are in the same quarter as Taylor so only one can medal and that is likely to be Ashkalov
Semi picks Everton Lopes/Ashkalov/Zakaryan/Uranchimeg
More to follow

[mike222]

Welterweight
Freddie Evans is the number one seed and should reach the semis at least although Aussie Daniel Lewis and the German Marutjan will have something to say about that.Jamontay Clark and Adam Nolan are in the second quarter but cant meet until the quarters.In their quarter is Italian Vincenzo Mangiacapre and Kazakhi Daniyar Eleusinov.
Lewis Benson faces Bahamian Carl Heild and then probably Eleusinov
Semi picks Evans/Mangiacapre/Besputin/Despaigne
Middleweight
Leshawn Rodriguez meets a Belarussian and if successful then top seed Esquiva Falcao.Jason Quigley has a bye and is then set to meet Indian Vijender,who I thought had been suspended Sine Die for drugs offences.He is good but I like Quigley.Scot Aston Brown is in the same quarter.
Anthony Fowler has Ukrainian Dmitro Mitrofanov waiting early on
Semi picks Falcao/Quigley/Juratoni/Mitrofanov
Light Heavy
Joe Ward should reach the Quarters where he is likely to face Russian Nikita Ivanov and if successful probably Defending Champion Julio Cesar Da Cruz.
Geremias Torres faces a Mongolian and then probably Uzbekhi Mamazulonov
Scott Forest faces a Dane and then possibly Dutchman Peter Mullenberg
Semi picks Niyazimbetov/Mamazulonov/Ward/Da Cruz
Heavyweight
Michael Hilton and Warren Baister are in the same quarter.Baister faces number three seed Sergey Korneyev whilst Baister has Russian Evgeny Tishcenko first up.
Scot Steven Lavelle's first opponent is a Chilean and then the tough Italian Russo
Semi picks Savon/Russo/Tishcenko/El Mais or Peralta
Super Heavy
Cam Awesome meets an Argentinian and if he wins top seed Magomed Medshidov.Con Sheehan meets the youthful Yoandris Toirac first up.Tough draws.
Joe Joyce has a better draw,first an Algerian then Ukrainian Egor Plevako and then the winner of Mihal Nistor and Erik Pfeiffer.Hard but possible
Semi Picks Medshidov/Cammarelle/Dychko/Joyce
Competition starts tomorrow.
