***official Olympic Boxing Thread***

[deuce_drop]

i can't sit and watch the boxing in the olympics anymore, the scoring is the worst i've ever withnessed. it has to be the biggest joke, which isnt s joke because they're ****ing with peoples lives. i can't stand the fact that they score on punches when all they do is miss the actually landing punches, and i can't stand the fact that it is open scoring so once a guy knows that he's ahead on the score, it becomes, not a boxing match, but a game a chase!!!!

i personally think that they should do away with boxing in the olympics, they can't get it right, and talk about how politcal it is, when it's supposed to not be, what a ****ing joke it is!!!!

guys landing clean punches and not getting points for it, but the chinese fighters rack up double digit points in the first two rounds, etc. it's complete crap and total bias, i'm using the chinese as an example, but it's more than just that, you know, it's all over the board, guys falling down are getting scoring points!?!?!? WTF! is that!!! it's the biggest joke, i'm surprised teddy atlas has kept his cool throughout, i know i can't keep my cool at all, even when i try to blow it of and just watch boxing, i can't do it, i cant stand the unfairness of it all, especially, when its supposed to be the most honest and fair system in the olympics, what a ****ing joke, i think that boxing should be taken out of the game just for the sake of saving face and to stop the disgrace of the sport, it has a bad enough rep as is, amateur boxing is one thing, olympic boxing is the absolute worst!!!!!!

[Joe2608]

Andrade put on a great performance today. I'm picking him to win the Welterweight gold.

[Silencers]

He'll have a tough time with Hanati Silamu and possibly the Cuban who beat Saunders.

[El Jesus]

Andrade put on a great performance today. I'm picking him to win the Welterweight gold.

I hope he wins, him and Yanez have really impressed me.

[Joe2608]

He has all the attributes to win it, i think he's looked the best in that division so far. The Cuban's are always dangerous though.

Yeah because non of them go professional, it's like havin Amir Khan still as amateur....hardly fair is it.

I don't know whether it's fair or not, but there's no rule to say they can't do that. The good thing about it however, is it makes the other countries step up their game and the level of competition get's better.

This is the only way they can compete, what are they supposed to do?
