Don't count on it. This was likely their golden generation. Dusmatov is already signed to go pro, if they all go pro they'll have a reset like the Ukrainian team just had when their best guys all turned pro following 2012 Olympics. Don't expect results this good until 2024.Comment

The GB team was good yeah, just not great or as good as the teams from 2008-2012.
I agree that Joyce will end up being an underwhelming pro, that said, he was clearly robbed in the final. An absolute disgrace of a judging panel.Comment

Quantity over quality this year i thought. Said it before the tourney that i didn't think there was much top level talent in the squad.
Joyce will be a solid pro imo. Kinda like a very very poor mans SHW Henry Armstrong. If he has the engine and the chin to pull off the style in a pro fight then he will make some waves. Maybe not top level though.
Buatsi looks class. Extremely powerful, you see that just from the impact his punches have on his opponents. Definitely has some work to do though. Unsure whether he is better off learning in Pros or staying am for a year or two?Comment

I agree with the Irish boxer Michael Conlan that the judges may have been paid off in this Olympics.
edit: had to fix conlanLast edited by The Big Dunn; 08-22-2016, 12:21 PM.Comment
