Jamaicans are genetic freaks in sprinting. No other countries are going to overtake them anytime soon no matter how much they train. Just like no countries are going to overtake the U.S. in basketball, because it's one of the most popular U.S. sports. But most other disciplines like boxing, wrestling, taekwondo, tennis, volleyball, etc. are still anyone's game if they attract enough talent and train them well.

It would help if kids had any incentive whatsoever to box from an early age.
But whatever, Olympic boxing is so f***ing corrupt, every country could probably complain that at least one of their fighters got screwed over this year. Next time the Olympics are in the United States, they can be rigged our way.

Originally posted by Cutthroat View PostIt's worth noting that the last American boxer to win an Olympic medal was supposed to be a basketball or football player (D. Wilder), he won it with just 2 years experience.
