VERY. Are you watching online? Almost done the second round of the Filipino-Algerian match and not a point yet

Not currently, i gave up after struggling to get the stream to connect yesterday. I'll tune back in for the home fighters though

How did the fight you're watching finish?

2-0 for the Algerian boxer. Of course not all the blows got recorded though. In one of the fights I watched a boxer won 8-1 yet his nose had been streaming with blood a good round and a half before his opponents point registered.

I just cant get my head around why they refuse to score very clean jabs and hooks to the body.

Stalker lost 14-5 to Everton Lopes of Brazil

How did he look mate? Outclassed or unfortunate?

He lost fair and square but he held his own. He applied lots of pressure and was backing Lopes into the ropes alot, but the Brazilian had a very tight guard and was able to block most of his punches. Lopes also had quicker hands and would catch Stalker with lefts as he came in. Just a case of a fast slick guy outboxing a slower more predictable opponent. Also alot of good body work by both guys but nothing recorded for that.

He'll be better suited for the pros in my opinion.

Khalid Yafai and Scott Cardle boxing in quarter-final Wednesday night. Win and they've got a medal.

You can't get stream in UK now because BBC owns the rights, so aiba has to block it out, even though the BBC aren't showing any of it.

The fact that we cant even watch a choppy stream is a fornicating disgrace.
Good luck to Khalid - bring a medal home to Brum son!

That means a bronze medal as a minimum for the Irish boxer doesnt it? Great effort!

That's what I was thinking when I was watching his fight with the Brazilian. He kind of reminded me of Carl Froch a bit actually. He was much stronger than his opponent and was bullying him around the ring, but the top amateurs will all be to "cute" and slick for him. In the pros his style and strength would make much more off an impact.

Nevin could win the whole thing. I haven't been impressed by the Russian and Leon is slower and defantly beatable. Amateur boxing is very unpredictable, anything could happen.
