Who's the best country in the olympics

[Danny Gunz]

who do you guys think is gonna be the number one boxing country in the olympics... im gonna go hometown and say USA

[Rafael Benitez]

A poll would have been nice. Britain have more qualified trhan usual but I don't think we will get more than 2 medals. To be honest i think it is going to be Cuba with USA in third place behind the hometown ****s who will do a few robberies.

I think its US this olympics i was a tournament USA vs. Puerto Rico Boxing and they impressed me they won every fight but one and most by knockout.

Sorry but their were so many countries no point in doing a poll.

china followed by kazakhstan

[macman]

It will be Cuba in the lead as usual, as they have been every time they've competed for the last 30 years.

Second will be Russia.

Following probably a tossup between Ukraine, Kazakhstan, USA, UK, & late bloomers China.

mexico only got 2 fighters

[msagrain]

cuba then UK

[ophqui]

uk for at least 3 boxing medals this year (meaning we'll still get trounced by cuba, but its pretty decent anyway)

[mspiegelo]

1. cuba
2/3. usa or uk
4. china


china could be 1,2,3 or 4 depending on how corrupt the judging is this year... UK cats stay underestimating the US.

Watch out for Rau'shee Warren -flyweight, Gary Russel Jr. - bantamweight, Sadam Ali - lightweight and Demetrius Andrade- Welterweight - our 4 biggest hopefuls for gold!!!!

Good luck!

Cuba and Russia will be the top two.

Probably China, US and Italy for the next few spots. With Britain and some of the Eastern Bloc likely to do ok as well.

For the US Warren and Andrade are definately likely to medal. Sadam Ali isn't anywhere near the top of the 60kg division as it has plenty of depth, but the Olympics does tend to spring surprises.

Like Ali, Britain have a fighter from a Yemeni background, Khalid Yafai. Not likely to medal, but a good fighter.


For Britain Gavin, Murray and Bradley Saunders have medal prospects, maybe not gold though with the Cubans competing. Price, Billy-Joe Saunders and Jeffries are outside shots with Yafai and the underachieving De Gale (if he could keep focused he'd have an outside chance of a medal) rounding up the squad.
