Am I correct in thinking that had Cuba not boycotted the 1984 Olympics Stevenson would have been the favourite for a fourth gold medal? I notice from his record he was still good enough to be world champion in 1986 so it seems reasonable to assume he could have beaten Biggs in LA two years earlier, he would only have been 32 at the time. Especially as his record shows he had beaten Biggs three times between 82 and 84, twice by KO.

Now had Cuba attended at Seoul in 1988 would Stevenson have been eligible to fight in those games? When did the age-limit of 35 come into effect? As an aside I notice a young Felix Savon won his first world gold at those 1986 championships, so with no boycott in '88 perhaps he would also have chalked his first Olympic gold, eventually ending up with 4 as well?

If the boycotte had not happened in 1984 I would have highly favoured Stevenson to have beaten Biggs as he had already beaten him 3 times.

Unless the Cuban missile launcher got screwed by the judges of course.

Savon had beaten Ray Mercer in a USA-Cuba dual meet that year and would be favourite to win the gold medal.

Was Jorge Luis Gonzalez in line for either the 84 or 88 Olympics had Cuba not boycotted?

In 1984 Teofilo Stevenson woud have competed. He was in fantastic shape when he won the 1984 Friendship Games, a tournament where the countries who boycotted the Olympic Games took part.

In 1988 I believe Leonardo Martinez Fizz would've boxed. Fizz had a shoulder injury though around the time but I don't remember if it was before or after the Seoul Games.
