Joe was a top amateur alright, very good fighters were doing brilliant if they got through 3 rounds.

Apparantly Calzaghe's last ever defeat was in the welterweight Welsh ABA final in 1990 against Micheal Smyth. Here it is:

Amazing to think Froch fought Jason Booth, what was the outcome? I remember reading Froch lost to Peter Manfredo Jr in the ams. Footage of these fights would be great.

Khan knocked out Victor Ortiz in the ams, cant find any footage it online.

Can we read much into this? He looks very chinny in that clip.

Evgenyi Romanov

I have questions about his chin. Stiverne was the first puncher he faced as a pro, and although he was never in trouble he was hit with very little of note.

-Frankie Gavin beat Selcuk Aydin by DQ and Aydin was banned by the AIBA for attacking the referee after the bout. Frankie also beat IBF title challenger Lenny Zappavigna in the Commonwealth Games, stopping him on the outclass rule (27-7) in the third.

-Robert Helenius lost on points to Bermane Stiverne (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kn-IOgR3V6k) but outpointed David Price (25-22). Price was knocked out when he fought (https://www.youtube.com/watch? v=GHelbbjaB3k).

Kosei Tanaka (fighting a world title fight on May 30th) and Takuma Inoue (the younger brother of Naoya) fought something like 5 times as amateurs...maybe fair to say these are stars of tomorrow.

Toshiyuki Igarashi had Akira Yaegashi's number in the amateurs (think he went 4-0) with Yaegashi getting revenge in the pro ranks.
