go here if you want to see when your fighter is fighting.
The problem with DeGale is that he tends to lose focus and gets beaten by fighters who aren't as talented (Such as losing to the Aussie Fletcher in the Commonwealth Games).
the amount of truth in this post years later, lmao
Suarez will be tough to beat after seeing him against Saunders. Gutted for Billy Joe but Suarez should win Gold.
Who had Andrade got now in the next round?
I am not sure who he has next round but Billy Joe was outclassed, those cubans look like men against boys.

Yeah because non of them go professional, it's like havin Amir Khan still as amateur....hardly fair is it.
This is the only way they can compete, what are they supposed to do?

I don't know whether it's fair or not, but there's no rule to say they can't do that. The good thing about it however, is it makes the other countries step up their game and the level of competition get's better.
He has all the attributes to win it, i think he's looked the best in that division so far. The Cuban's are always dangerous though.

i can't sit and watch the boxing in the olympics anymore, the scoring is the worst i've ever withnessed. it has to be the biggest joke, which isnt s joke because they're fucking with peoples lives. i can't stand the fact that they score on punches when all they do is miss the actually landing punches, and i can't stand the fact that it is open scoring so once a guy knows that he's ahead on the score, it becomes, not a boxing match, but a game a chase!!!!
i personally think that they should do away with boxing in the olympics, they can't get it right, and talk about how politcal it is, when it's supposed to not be, what a fucking joke it is!!!!
guys landing clean punches and not getting points for it, but the chinese fighters rack up double digit points in the first two rounds, etc. it's complete crap and total bias, i'm using the chinese as an example, but it's more than just that, you know, it's all over the board, guys falling down are getting scoring points!?!?!? WTF! is that!!! it's the biggest joke, i'm surprised teddy atlas has kept his cool throughout, i know i can't keep my cool at all, even when i try to blow it of and just watch boxing, i can't do it, i cant stand the unfairness of it all, especially, when its supposed to be the most honest and fair system in the olympics, what a fucking joke, i think that boxing should be taken out of the game just for the sake of saving face and to stop the disgrace of the sport, it has a bad enough rep as is, amateur boxing is one thing, olympic boxing is the absolute worst!!!!!!
Really? It's already ended for me.
Make sure not to turn it off. The fight after his is an absolute war. Such a good fight.
That fight was awesome, the best of the tourney no doubt.
