The bantamweight from India in the Olympics, Akhil Kumar. I really liked his style man. He fought a Frenchman who was also very good. Very good fight. Kumar looked real good though, he has a great left hook to both the body and head and he aint afraid to show it. He would have a great style for the pros too. Im routing for him now he made me a fan. That was my favorite fight ive seen yet in the games.
I wouldn't sleep on the Thai boxer Worapoj Petchkoom either, he won Silver in 2004 although he didn't do too well in the recent World Championships and he's matched up against the Cuban next.
Kumar won again today, upsetting the World Champion from Russia, Sergey Vodopyanov.
Im telling you man this guy can fight. I say his only comp now is Leon Alarcon from Cuba.
Yeah, I saw it he was slick and sick. I disagree about the Frenchman though, I did not think he was much skilled.
I think Kumar just made him look bad, but your entiitled to your opinion :)
Kumar is a great talent though id love to see him in the pros, unfortunately i doubt we will ever see that. Why don't these guys go pro? Just stay am forever, its stupid.
