Honestly i don't rate any boxer at 49 really high, only Argilagos, because top fighters in 49 in london, moved up to 52.

Someone saw the Russo fight?

[GGGKO1]

Why are none of these guys getting hurt?

I mean this last fight they were both swinging wildly at times and looked to have landed some very good shots at times but neither were even slightly hurt at any point?

All got iron chins or all pillow punchers....?

Josh Kelly impressed me. Cong**** for his performance.

[GGGKO1]

Bigger gloves, 3 rounds, less emphasis on power, more emphasis on speed, technique, and contact.

August 14th

Just tuned in for the first time this Olympics, so I haven't followed all the fights. Immediately struck by how much better it feels to be able to see the faces of the fighters instead of having it obscured by headgear. Why that makes difference, i don't know...but that's the reaction I had

That was a good fight. Delgado vs. Mbilli should be a good fight.
