Good.

Anyway, i thought they was gunning for Golovkin ASAP?
So how are you going to go from calling out one of the most feared fighters on the planet to then fighting a bunch of amateurs at the olympics.

Wow Eubanks is 27 for Christ sakes. And he wants to fight teenagers what a coward. My respect for him just plummeted I thought he wanted to fight gg soon

Good I guess. What if Fowler hadn't already qualified? Would they allow Jr to then represent them? I hope this doesn't happen

It won't work this year, but it will be exciting to see the pros in the Olympics in 2020.

This bum wants to fight some 18 year old kids who never fought without headgear... LOL. What a ****.

***checks to make sure none of his favorite fighters are planning an Olympic run in Rio***

He's got a taste for putting people in a coma now. He knows it will be easy pickings doing it to 18 year old olympians.

Damn is Eubank the first guy to legit make an attempt to get on an Olympic team??? Everyone else talking real vague about being involved.

That gold medal is dreamy looking I guess. Guys be like Idgaf if I gotta knock out some kids with 3 ball hairs I need that gold medal.

They should have done a box off

Most of these guys are not teenagers as a lot are saying, most of them are in the early 30s late 20s.

Still is BS to let the pros fight in the Olympics.
