Ringside is NOT being considered for an Olympic qualifier. Wonder who started that rumor.....Under-19 is cancelled for this year.

First of all, the Ringside tournament is not a USA Boxing national ranking tournament. It is an annual invitational put on by the Ringside company. It is not a group member like PAL and Golden Gloves. This year the Ringside tournament will probably be a week or two prior to the Olympic Box-offs (Trials) and it's possible that's what caused the confusion. The 8 boxers in each weight class have already been determined; the qualifying for the Box-offs is already done.

Mel - I have not seen anything that says it is cancelled. How do you know?

Admin told us at the Western Trials that the U-19 was cancelled.

Thanks Mel. USAB said that last year too I think. They might change their minds and hold the tourney.

Last year USAB had A2P - this year they have nothing. If you're still in CS, Dennis, you could ask Chris Cuddy......

He was one of the USAB people to tell me that it was cancelled.
