A clean sweep by Cuba! I was surprised that Michael Lopez lost to Robert Alfonso.

Cuban boxers have won every gold at the Cordova Cardin tournament since 1999 when Omar Narvaez (ARG), the current WBO flyweight champion, won gold at 51 kg in Santa Clara.
All 11 members of the Pan American squad won gold and some were minor upsets like Yampier Hernandez over Andry Laffita, Emilio Correa over Luis Enrique Garcia and also Robert Alfonso over Michel Lopez.
