Olympic Boxing - Rio 2016

[HI-TECH Boxing]

Nah they've just faced nobodies, they got some favourable calls at the Worlds and they still weren't top 5 I don't believe. Best team is Cuba.

So far Uzbekistan has looked the best. Those are the key words so far.
Some Cuban boxers haven't looked great in their first few fights.
Argilagos struggled in his first fight, but looked amazing in his next fight.
Savon and Alvarez were underwhelming in their first fights.
La Cruz dominated.
Lets not act like Cuba hasn't had any weak opposition.

Uzbekistan has only had one OK performance so far and the rest have been good or great. Uzbekistan is in the lead for now. That doesn't mean they will end up being the best overall, but for the first five days they have it.
Don't worry Cuba will most likely be the best team overall (meaning when the competition is over), but for now you have to give Uzbekistan credit.

Big light-heavyweight fight next. Ward silver medalled in the World Championship last year, and has only lost to La Cruz at the last two worlds. Mina his opponent is one of the few to beat La Cruz.

Min vs Ward should be a crazy fight

Ward vs Mina looks like a great fight on the paper
Ward always struggles with La Cruz and Mina beat him once but lost to him at least twice.

Disagree, the British team is a strong team, they've had the toughest opposition. So Argilagos and Savon faced the guys that were the second best team in WSB. I think US has had the easiest path so far.

Ward did a really good bodywork but i saw Mina winning the first.

[pesticid]

Joseph Ward turned to an octopus all of a sudden.

[pesticid]

Ward won it but he doesn't like to be bullied, he likes to bully

[yngwie]

Mina looks strong on the inside, i believe Mina also won the second, but he needs to win the third if he wants to win.

[pesticid]

Freaking Ward should be disqualified for holding and keeping his lead arm straight
