      "At the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, Mayweather won a bronze medal by reaching the finals of the featherweight division's 31-boxer tournament. In the opening round, Mayweather led 10-1 on points over Bakhtiyar Tileganov of Kazakhstan before he won by round 2 referee stoppage. In the second round, Mayweather outpointed Artur Gevorgyan of Armenia 16-3. In the quarterfinals, Mayweather survived a late rally by Lorenzo Aragon of Cuba to win 47-11. In his semifinal bout against the eventual silver medalist, Serafim Todorov of Bulgaria, Mayweather lost by a controversial decision that the U.S. team officially protested. Many who saw the bout, including the referee, believed that Mayweather had won."

      Sorry to copy and paste from elsewhere, it seemed like the thing to do since I did not actually see the events. I was not a boxing fan at the time. That year I watched gymnastics, lol.

        The Cuban in the quarter-final deserved the decision over Mayweather Jr. I remember watching it.

          Auggie Sanchez beat Mayweather in the amateurs..

          (Naseem Hamed basically killed Auggie in the pros - that was a brutal fight.)
