On a round by round scoring I had the estrada bout a draw (2 rounds a piece) and the armenian fight a draw. I hate amateur scoring.

Also there was this Brazilian guy vs this african guy and I think it could be called a robbery. There was this huge right hand that the african guy landed that buckled sliva's knees and they didn't even count it. Also he landed a jab that snapped his head back and they didn't call it. I think on a round by round basis it was probably a draw, but they definietly weren't counting points for Silva's oppnenot. Then again neither for Silva.

It's really frustrating to watch. At least have them 5 rounds or 3 so it doesn't end in a draw for people who like to score RBR

yeah agreed the dude from Haiti didn't get enough credit .. Silva won that

final score was what 7 or 6-2?


good fight between the Ghanan and Nigerian though.

6-2 I think.

Julian Jackson's son has the power just like his father. Wow. He's losing pretty damn bad, but then out of nowhere BAM and down goes the guy from ireland. Seems like the guy from ireland has regained control though. Jackson has awful defense. I mean awful.

If this was a pro fight, Jackson would have likely put the guy out, Jackson was out there fighting like a pro instead of like an amatuer.

Russia is doing very well. Artur Beterbiyev easily won. I hope he wins the gold medal.

Are you able to watch any of the action? If you miss anything you can always try youtube or keep a close eye on this thread as hopefully i will try to post as many fights that appear on there as possible.

Yes. I watched a chinese boxer win, and then Artur Beterbiyev win. But, then it stopped. Business Russia is on right now. Hopefully, olympics will be shown again. I will always check this thread for information. Thank you for creating it !

I saw a lot of punches that landed cleanly on a scoring zone that wasn't scored, some interesting fights though.

what channel are you guys watching these fights on? How do you know when they are coming on? Are you just watching all olympic coverage until it comes on?
