Who the hell is Oktay Urkal?

[Spontaneous]

So you just started following boxing in July? I figured you just joined the site then and brought something with you. I mean he fought Cotto THIS YEAR for crying out loud.

Shut the **** up you ***got, I didn't see that fight.

Back when i had the channels years ago i saw him fight many times. I don't remember him being that special. But he was the type of guy that wasn't very gifted, but made the most of what he had, and he has a lot of heart/toughness. But damn, he should atleast have punching power.

he's the same kinda guy as cosme rivera, gate keepers

He was good about five years back. Fought Calzaghe a few times and may have won Olympics

Oktay Urkal is the guy Miguel Cotto almost body slammed in the 10th round of their fight I believe.

That's real ****in funny.

Anyways, he was a silver medalist in the light welterweight division in the 1996 Olympics. He defeated David Diaz, the guy who just beat Erik Morales on his way to that medal.
