Olympic hopefuls?

[Reece_D]

Looking forward to Savon vs Levitt tomorrow followed by Joyce straight after.

[MightyWarrior]

Ronald McDonald Macintosh, a man who will use 25 words where one will do.

"The boxer from the country of Spain, in Europe, has won this portion of this contest of the NOBLE ART, with a enthrallingly vibrant display of pugilistic jabbing & a cracking bent arm right hand powerful blow, rendering his opponent 2nd best, indeed possibly 3rd best ..etc etc "

I think I might be the only person in the world who doesn't actually mind Macintosh as a commentator.

Like the look of nico hernandez from the states

I haven't found him too bad this time around

By the way did anybody see the Uzbek fella smash the Aussie at middleweight? Best performance/performer I have seen at the games so far, elusive and very sharp and heavyhanded with it, well worth a watch if you haven't seen him yet

[chiggsy]

Savon had off again.

Not going to say robbed because it was close but i thought he won that fight.

[MightyWarrior]

That was some impressive hitting by the big Nigerian super heavy.

And yes Ronald Mc has got a lot better lately

[Cholo_cws]

Savon had off again.

I thought he lost but not sure how one judge had him losing the first - the Swedish judge again. Bad judging elsewhere though (Iglesias and even more so the poor Romanian.)

[crusader]

I thought Levit deserved his win

[Andrew]

Joe Joyce won first round ok last night his opponent was WAY out of his depth.

[chiggsy]

Anyone know what time mccormacks on?

[Boxing Prospect]

Butdee and Nistor have been robbed silly, though Levit won very fairly, thought Gary Russell was lucky.

The guy who beat Mina (what a fight that was BTW) should surely be recognised as "The 4th pro" give he's 10-0 (5) in the pro ranks and fought as a pro in April!

[Counter-puncher]

Nobody else impressed by the Uzbek middleweight?

[Boxing Prospect]

Yeseleainouv? (sp?)

[Counter-puncher]

Yeseleainouv? (sp?)

Dunno his name, there's only one Uzbek middleweight I guess. He tooled this Aussie kid badly

Nice little bout at bantam uzbek-kazak

Would have been Bektemir Melikuziyev then, I missed his bout :(

Guy I was thinking of was Daniyar Eleusinov of Kazakhstan

[Counter-puncher]

Worth tracking down, he looked a million dollars, fast heavy hands, good movement and ringcraft, total package

Mongolia France in the lightweights this could be interesting

[Boxing Prospect]

The judges started so well but have become more and more...crap...in recent days

[Counter-puncher]

Amateur judging is really reliable and easy to understand.
Said noone ever.

[Counter-puncher]

McCormack looks pretty well-schooled against a southpaw again. Two skilled operators in there

[Counter-puncher]

Buatsi is a fucken badman

[Counter-puncher]

Heck of a chin on the Algerian fella

[Cholo_cws]

Buatsi reminding me of Nigel Benn in there.

[crusader]

That Algerian has now lost in the quarterfinals three Olympics in a row. Must be tough to get so close to a medal that many times without bringing any home.

[Counter-puncher]

Buatsi reminding me of Nigel Benn in there.

Yeah, although I think he looks much better when he boxes. He had some really nice technical cameos amidst the slugging, albeit brief ones.
