          Atlas jinxed the others on the American team.

          Then, in the semi-finals he said Wilder would advance to the finals, and Wilder lost too.

          In 2012, NBC shouldn't have Atlas work as commentator.

            I think by now everybody should realize how overrated yank fighters are.
            Now that everyone has a chance to show their skills, the yanks choke like **** stars in the ring.

            They did well in other sports but boxing clearly is not their thing...

                The olympic boxing scoring system is so ****ed up its hard to judge those fighters based on the olympics fights.

                But either way iam kind of dissapointed we didnt get any medals. Especially the US fighter who lost to that french guy... i thought he would definetly medal.

                  It was very disappointing considering the USA had 2 world champions in Warren and Andrade that didn't even make the medal rounds and then to have Luis Yanez pretty much do everything opposite to what the coach wanted him to do is disgraceful, they need to get rid of Dan Campbell or something.

                  Selecting the team 1 year before the Olympics is a ****** idea as well IMO.

                      Kind of a bust... and also branded by teddy atlas *(many more soon to follow i believe)* to be the worst olympic boxing team EVER only receiving one ..... 1 MEDAL!!


                      Not to mention it being BRONZE.
                      Terrible, it seems like they just grabbed whoever and threw the uniform on them. No standouts this time around.
