I've been hearing a lot about this tournament on BBC (I try to avoid American media), and it seems like it's a pretty big deal "across the pond." Are there any boxers to look forward to seeing, and hows it going so far? I'm seeing the results, but what fights are the exciting fights to look out for?

The new "no headgear" rule is in effect...so it is sort of like pro boxing..but with big azz gloves. Makes all bouts interesting IMO. Now you get to see cuts in amateur boxing...blood flowing, eyes swelling up etc.
Commonwealth Games take place once in 4 years just like the Olympics...it's just that the participants are the countries which were once under the British rule/empire (aka Commonwealth).
