Gold definately, he looked brilliant at the Euro's. He could be a real star in the future.

he has some kind of pre-contract, they already support him and some other german hopes already.

Hungarian middleweight Karoly Balszay has already signed forms with Universum.

Tajbert has been sparring and training with Amir Khan this week in preparation for the competition.

Tajbert is fornicating class, this guy is amazing, nothings gonna stop him. He has everything. A real prospect for a future world champ if he stays focused.

BubiScholz · Post by **BubiScholz** » 16 Aug 2004, 11:06

unfortunately i´m working. i didn´t watch the fight. if he wins the next fight he would face the cuban guy. that would be hard.

My first viewing of Tajbert and i was impressed...he was sharp and very fast handed. His Argentine opponent Brizuela was no mug either but he simply took him apart...Featherweight gold beckons methinks

Time to jump on the old bandwagon i think. His fight was by far the best performance of the tournament so far. I've posted elsewhere that i think he's got a style that will really help him to do well when he turns pro, i was well impressed. The only critism is that when the Argentine came forward and really put the pressure on Tajbert he looked fairly ordinary, unfortunately his opponent could only sustain that pressure for a few seconds at a time.

Settle down. Going on his opening bout, you're going to get a few more chances to watch the guy. He going all the way.

BubiScholz · Post by **BubiScholz** » 17 Aug 2004, 07:09

he will face the cuban guy in the quarterfinals.......cuban guys are always dangerous. if he would reach the semifinal everything is possible.

BubiScholz · Post by **BubiScholz** » 20 Aug 2004, 06:21

tough match today vs french guy who was in the Euro-final.

Kilburn · Post by **Kilburn** » 20 Aug 2004, 06:25

Tajbert must be fighting on about half an hour eh?

MightyWarrior · Post by **MightyWarrior** » 20 Aug 2004, 06:36

Yeah I'd like to see this guy again - he looked class last time out, and it's always nice to see someone put one over the Cubans

Diving on Eurosport at moment - Peter Kay for England maybe?

BubiScholz · Post by **BubiScholz** » 20 Aug 2004, 06:56

fight is scheduled for 13.15 MEZ, so it must be 14.15 Greenwich time. unfortunately i have to work.......

Kilburn · Post by **Kilburn** » 20 Aug 2004, 07:18

Well I keep hearing at work that Khan is on at 1:40pm. Looks unlikely now.

I think the Beeb are showing him at 1.45 - says boxing anyway. I'm hoping Eurosport switch to boxing in the next hour, though they'll probably switch to syncronized diving during the fight - bloody French.

REAL_DEAL · Post by **REAL_DEAL** » 20 Aug 2004, 07:24

Khan is in 4 fights time. 1300

Kilburn · Post by **Kilburn** » 20 Aug 2004, 07:29

So have the featherweights actually started? There are no live comments on the Eurosport website.

Go for Gold, Vitali Tajbert!

What does he win?
