It seems that they have had some tough draws though. Our MW fought a tough Cuban dude and I think it was our welter got the bronze medalist from Athens. Still, pretty poor form so far.

we are a pretty small country to pick a competing team from when you have NRL AFL soccer and rugby union most parents choose those sports and don't won't boxing for there kids but if you look at some countries (and i don't won't this to sound bad in any way) but it's a way to get out of poverty or create a btter life they are just hungrier and want to succed more then we do
to us its a sport to others it is a way of life
