    and I thought exhibitions were three rounds...these were scheduled for 4.
    this is baloney. Im taking away all of Chagaev's amateur credentials because of this corruption of the system.

    although honestly I wish pros could fight in the amateurs again. Imagine how awesome the Olympics would be!
    seriously, what a dumb thing. almost all other sports get to participate in the Olympics, right?
