I had a good laugh at all the "This is just wrong, pros will KILL amateurs, heads must roll!" posts on here

Manufactured hype apparently gives you superhuman powers...

Pros will lose to amateurs all the time

Correction. Pros will lose to amateurs in the amateurs (olympics) all the time. And amateur in a pros is is at a disavantage.

We were posting about high level pros like Klitschko and Pacquiao. Not low level bums with 15 losses.

Also, at Super Heavyweight, 5-1 pro Evan Nedd of Aruba lost a 2-1 split decision to APB Pro and 11-1 "regular" pro Ahmed Samir of Egypt.

A WSB amateur vs a pro bum.

Big shocker

Let's add that guys name who lost to future prospective opponent for D. Wilder then.

Wait what...a amateur fought a professional and the amateur didn't die? How can this be?

Not a surprising result at all and I suspect many of the people opposed to this will start agreeing they were wrong as the Olympics get started and some of these pros have competitive fights and even come up short vs amateurs. Assuming any even make it in as I don't believe a pro has as of yet anyway.
