It's not right but, to be honest, it just devalues it for me.
I look forward to the boxing at the Olympics precisely because it's a different sport to the pro ranks. The Olympics is the pinnacle for the amateurs.
If Jalolov wins the gold medal it will count for nothing in my opinion.
It's heading down the route of tennis, golf and soccer. Sports where the Olympics is a relatively minor event.
Yeah I’m the same, I always eagerly watched the Olympic boxing, stars are often born, but the new rules allowing pro’s to compete have really decreased my interest in it. I’ll watch a couple of the British lads but not much else.
I was looking forward to the Olympic boxing & prospects like Delicious Orie going for gold after winning amateur titles. Then i see 6 year pro Jalalov has come back to defend his Olympic medal, I'm like huh? Jalalov to afraid to step up?
