>Olympic Boxers with no head gear on
When did this happened?
They changed the rules. The scoring is also the same as pro boxing now.
It seems to be paying off - both fights so far have been great.
That Spanish guy looks like he's done a few lines.
Is this prelude to having pro boxers in the next Olympics?
There are already two pro boxers this year: Ruenroeng for Thailand at lightweight and N'Dam for Cameroon at light heavyweight.
there was pro boxers allowed in these olympics, pretty sure only a few tried qualifying and none made it lel
It's great to see them actually trying to hurt each other instead of just score points like at the last two Olympics.
Ireland best boxing nation.
I don't know why anyone else even bothers.
But will we see guys like Canelo, Kovalev, GGG, Provodnikov, and Adrien Broner in 2020?
Didn't one of your guys get busted for PEDs yesterday?
I doubt that many guys who are actually at world title level will bother, but there should be a lot more. Particularly younger and older boxers and those from poor non-countries.
ALLEDGED
HE A GOOD BOY
HE DIDNDU NUFFIN. TAINTED SUPPLEMENT. HE WORKED TOO HARD TO DO SOMETHING SILLY LIKE PED
HE DID NOTHING WRONG GET OUT
Whats a stream other than the nbc one?
The winner of the current fight (the Spaniard by the look of it) will face Paddy Barnes in the next round btw
>Brits call a protective mouthpiece a gumshield
Is he a tinker like John Joe Nevin? If so I don't believe him
Armenia vs Spain right?
>You will never be a TMT-Mayweather trained Boxer at the Olympics
Mexico vs. Italy next, should be good
There's a USA vs Kazakhstan match soon. Not next but the one after. That should be really good. Kazakhstan probably have the strongest team this year next to Cuba.
They're all pikeys Englishbro...They're all pikeys.
My girlfriend is from the same town as John Joe. He got his legs broke by his cousin because he fucked his wife. Fucker is barred from every pub in the town, drives around constantly in a suped up fiat punto with his toddler kid on his lap.
>DMX up in here
Hello lads
>My girlfriend is from the same town as John Joe. He got his legs broke by his cousin because he fucked his wife
Hahaha. I heard about his injury and wondered what the story was
Joe Ward at light heavyweight looks really good. He will probably medal and go on to be a world champion in the pros
Olympic ko when
>Mexicans chanting
>Bother to watch Olympic boxing
No one is going to get heemd.
Anybody got a steam?
There was nearly a stoppage earlier, some Colombian beat the dogshit out of a Brazilian.
No headgear and pro style scoring this year so I reckon there will be a few.
Colombia Brazil fight was top tier. Brazil was getting smacked around
>No headgear and pro style scoring this year so I reckon there will be a few.
How was the scoring different previously? I forget
They scored a point when they landed a punch. It was basically like how they use "Compubox" on HBO. It favoured safety-first pot-shotting and produced a lot of dull fights
Based on hits rather than performance
How come Italy produces so many good, crafty amateur boxers but none of them turn pro?
In London I thought that Cammarelle deserved to win the final over Anthony Joshua.
where can I watch this?
holy shit no headgear. I thought that would be next Olympics and not this one. Should be good.
Scratch that, this Italian is actually a pro taking advantage of the new rules
It's on that telemundo channel
Congolombia is a savage
Is it with commercials though?
Why arent they competing shirtless?
>not shown live on Finnish Sup Forums
I was looking forward to this.
DOPING
Karate vs Cuban Boxing
Do Binland have a chance at any golds this year?
Jap Vs Ven Now..
My money's on japan, as he's eaten this week.
Where can I watch 60kg?
No Holding!
I'm at work tell me, how is Jap/Ven fight going right now?
So whats the rules on pro boxers returning? N'Dam had two pro fights this year. I thought you had to have three years of no fights before you could return?
Maybe in some stuff like sailing, but I really doubt it.
Venezelan getting BTFO.
fairly even at the moment, Ven got the first round though
jap working him
ven rekt but winning by points
I think they just had to go through a qualifying tournament (N'Dam actually lost in the final but still qualified)
Cammarelle is a high ranking officer in the Italian police, together with his endorsements he probably has a high salary and a comfy life and didn't want to give it up to turn pro
Yakuza vs Cartel
Pretty good fight this
USA up next
same here
Boxing not shown in Europe?
This is GGG's silver medal fight from 04
youtube.com
strange to see him get manhandled and thrown around so easily, he was about 10 years younger than the Russian to be fair
it is, just not on national channels for estonia
Well, Jap wins.
Fucking venezuelann getting cornered every fucking time.
kek. So whats stopping every pro boxer from coming here to beat the shit out of a bunch of ammys for an easy gold?
I fucking hate how shitty NBC's coverage is. Previous gamesI could just watch on the Mexican channels that leaked over the border because I don't mind not understanding the commentators, but they're not showing the games on the Mexican channels for some reason this time.
Jap deserves it
It gets shown in 30 min, but I wanted to see the whole event. They will even probably juggle it with some horse polevaulting golf just to spite me even more.
Who fights next?
>commentators saying the Venezuelan should have won
lol
Italy BTFO out of Mexico
Based
different style of fighting
no money
risk of injury/embarrassment
A lot of countries and some of the sanctioning bodies wouldn't allow them this year, plus it was only decided at the last minute, but there will probably be a lot more in 2020
Winn4r by split dec Japan (60Kg)
Murica next
...
t. sudaca
I hope you never make fun of our television license again, because the BBC is showing every minute
50p on the Khazak
Japan won, it was really close by score, but the Japanese guy seemed a lot better.
mountain gook vs taco
KAZ Vs USA next
Oh look we have a spic fighting for US
Carlos Jr.
No, European you salty Chicano
This is a fun fight, I thank you and your family for this spic channel
Yeah I specifically remember hearing that you had to have three years of no pro fights before you could return to the Olympics. 2020 will be majority pro boxers trying to snatch easy medals kek.
Crap: Womens Cuba Vs Brazil in Judo at the same time
Is that a traditional American name?
USA
christ this spic is swinging for the fences
what did you expect, a white guy? lol
BUILD WALL
Now this I like. They're actually trying to hit each other and not some point scoring bullshit.
Are they gonna rob the Yank?
Going for dem haymakers
with the shocking record USA amateurs have now they won't need to rob them
The Kazakhistan fighter looks better....but both fighters look better than the Japanese/Venezuelan ones...
>Canela will win gold fighting guys 3x smaller than him
I like that it's amateurs, shame it will be infested with pro boxers now
It should be 2-0 to the American imo
