You might check on CNBC. The other day they had them on in the afternoon.

The scoring system is pretty atrocious although that was the same scoring system that won Raushee the World Amateur championship which I was fortunate enough to see.
It just seems like in the Olympics you have to maul the guy to even get a point and forget about body shots, they don't exist.

[KostyaTszyu44]

they need to get rid of headgear, bring back 3x3 min rounds and change the scoring system to rounds again, giving either fighter the round based on aggression, cleaner/harder shots landed, ring generalship, workrate etc

Warren was who i was most looking foward to seeing the kid has tons of talent maybe it was written in the stars for the kid to fail at the Olympics so he can be a better pro or something

cant wait to see him if he does turn Pro

[ElGranLuchador]

teddy atlas fault he picked him to be succesful
luckily he picked yanes to fail

[MJ406]

where does Warren go from here?

Isn't it true that he lost in the 1st round of the 2004 Olympics as well?

tough decision for him as what does he do? turn pro now, or wait another 4 years for the NEXT Olympics.

He turns pro. Four years ago the Chinese guy who was in his division was a beast so he moved up to the next division and did very well but he would be 25 if he waited for the next olympics.
I bet you see his pro debut in less than three months, maybe two.

It would be silly for him not to go pro.

It ain't easy being broke for four more years.

Frankie Gavin is a helluva fighter. I saw him in every round of the amateur championships last year.
That man should go pro as well.
