I'm a little unsure Shiming takes the gold this year. He's been barley surviving while his Thai counterpart has been upsetting everyone. I know he beat him already.... but what do you think the chances are Zou loses

My picks for today:


Shiming Zou vs Kaeo Pongprayoon

John Joe Nevin vs Luke Campbell

Roniel Iglesias vs Berinchyk

Murata vs Esquiva Florentino 50/50 fight, I like both of them, so that the best man wins.

Russo vs Usyk

HOw much in the tank do you think Shiming has though? He's been surviving while Kaeo is riding a wave of upset momentum.
I think Shiming wins too.... but I don't think it'll be as dominant as his last one and wouldn't be surprised if he lost.

Well Super Zou hasn't look looked that great, but I believe he should be the clear favorite, I don't know to much about Pongprayoon, only saw 1 fight of him and he didn't impress me that much.

Also you have to take in account the name the chinese has in Amateur Boxing, and of course his skills, it will be very tough for the thai.

And this will be Super Zou last Olympic games, so he will give it all in his last fight, Zou should win, if logic stands.

Usyk is a -350 favorite. Its weird because Russo is very protected by AIBA
