Olympic Boxing - Rio 2016

Good fight. Anybody that calls this a robbery needs to get their eyes checked, seriously.

3rd round could have gone either way due to Russells aggression, but the Uzbek landed far more. Russell was just charging forward like a mad man... not really putting in any good work before or after the single shot that landed cleanly.

I disagree, so do the two commentators who have no relation to either man or either country.

Russel did not clearly win anything. I think you should re-watch, and stop reading this big ***** Pestids posts.

both commentators on bbc thought russell done enough

Agree, I don't score slapping shots so Russell did himself no favours.

Dude it's ridiculous... I've called out EVERY robbery here. That was NOT a robbery, this kid is literally pulling his hair out over nothing. Because he's upset at one of his favorite fighters losing a fair and legit decision two days ago.

Russell scored points for COMING FORWARD, and he did it well, however, he did nothing when he came in. He landed an occasional big punch, but hardly any jabs connected, and nothing followed his single, clean punches. No combos.

Sure, the Uzbek held, and "ran," but he was more effective, he landed more punches, he evaded more punches, and he controlled the fight.

Close fight, yes? I said the third could have gone either way depending on how the judges scored Russells aggression..... but certainly no robbery. But to some of these dudes, I can't take them seriously anymore. Oh well.

Both commentators on NBC thought Russell did well for his experience but did nothing when he got in and the more experienced Uzbek did whatever he wanted and controlled the fight and won.

It was not a robbery. Russel "did enough," by not being a punching bag and actaully moving forward and being the aggressor, however, you count up all the landed punches, and the Uzbek landed far, far more.

la cruz making it look like it's nothing

La Cruz is on another level

That light heavyweight would absolutely school Ward, I hope he can turn pro somehow.

I wish la Cruz was a little more orthodox in his style. He has so much potential but just asking to be kod
