Not going to help if they don't get competent judges...

The scoring needs to change, the headgear is iffy, I mean what if a clash of heads or a cut happens?..even if they win it'll be tough to continue..

Atleast with the scoring we'll see more pro style fights as opposed to pitty pat boxing

USA will still go home with no medals but will just have a couple less excuses to rely on.

No doubt changed to suit the Americans style, sadly nothing they can do about the fact that they just suck

It's true mate, it was all good when USA was dominant, a couple of barren Olympics and now it needs sweeping changes
