106: Louis Curtis vs Paul Gonzales: Gonzales was picked as the best boxer of the tournament, including a win over the future winner of the next olympics, Kwan Sung Kim. 84 Wins.
112: Leo Randolph vs Steve McCrory: Randolph was the youngest fighter to won the olympic and world championship and retire, McCrory was good but got some controversial decisions even with the boycott in his favor. 76 wins.
119: Charles Mooney vs Robert Shannon: Shannon was an action packed fighter, the only one of his team that didn't get the medal, his victories at the olympic trials where awesome, but he can't win this againts the silver medalist Mooney. 76 Wins.
125: Davey Lee Armstrong vs Meldrick Taylor: The two time olympian and veteran Armstrong against the young teenager Taylor, Taylor wins this, close fight, but Meldrick wins. 84 Wins.
132: Howard Davis Jr. vs Pernell Whitaker: The toughest fight of all, but i pick Davis because he was willing to die in the ring, got up twice of the canvas in the tournament and won the val barker and the gold. 76 Wins.
139: Sugar Ray Leonard vs Jerry Page: The easiest fight to pick, i don't believe that Page would have won a medal without the boycott, still i recommend everyone to watch his fight against thailand. 76 wins
147: Clint Jackson vs Mark Breland: Many people says that Jackson was shot by then, fought in the deepest division with guys like McCallum, Correa and Gamarro, Breland on his side, was just dominant in his amateur career, wasn't as impressive in the olympics or the pros, but gets this. 84 Wins.
156: Charles Walker vs Frank Tate: Many people would pick Tate but i wouldn't, every member of the 76 team talks about how smooth and good was Walker, many people believe he was robbed in the 76 against the guy who won the gold, and even Tate himself says he was impressed by the talent of Walker when they sparred. 76 Wins.
165: Michael Spinks vs Virgill Hill: Hill problem to let his hands go in the olympics got him the silver, Spinks was knocking out all his opponents and getting the gold. 76 Wins.
178: Leon Spinks vs Evander Holyfield: Both where taking everyone out, Holyfield was robbed of the chance in the finals, and due the fact he wasn't afraid of the intimidating Ricky Womack or even Mike Tyson at the time, i'll pick him. 84 Wins.
+178: John Tate vs Tyrell Biggs and Henry Tillman: Tate was out after Stevenson took him, and Briggs and Tillman where unimpressive in their finals, i'll pick Tate over Tillman and Biggs over Tate.
