      Luis Yanez goes to the gym that was right down the street to the gym I use to attend. He is a good kid. I will definitely be pulling for him.

            I have to be honest, I've never watched much of any of the Olympics in years past but plan to this time around.

              i have been watching it since 92, it wasnt until 2000 you could catch some streams of certain select events or major bouts. For the most part though itll be easier than ever to watch events on replay or on youtube before it even airs on primetime here. whats crazy is guys you see now could be famous and they may only have 1 or 2 fights, Fernando Vargas, Jeff Lacy, i remember rocky juarez and how devastated he was during his defeat. andre berto i remember only seeing maybe one of his performences, so the guys you see today some of them might not make a dent, but others may become something special. I remember watching floyd mayweathers 3 minute montage about him and his father growing up in a boxing family and i had just gotten home from summer school, next thing you know he becomes one of the greatest fighters to step in the ring, you never know who you are looking at so pay close attention.

                Ya no doubt......I've always kind of paid attention to who was doing what but never really watched any of it. Should be fun.

                  the olympic stuff comes on randomly throughout olympic coverage right? So it's a pain to watch it. Anyone else hear about all the trouble with the current coach of the usa olympic team? A lot of guys are training with their personal coaches cause he's so disliked. That could cause problems winning medals.
