So, did we win?

That CAF girl took a beating

are tiddies counter productive for a female boxer

or do they serve as body armor

Why are girls wearing helmets?

Would you spar your gf, /box/?

Lack of data regarding female boxers with helmets

you would think both genders would suffer the same type of injuries roughly the same amount of time, but nope, gotta keep em on

god damn that combination from france

you could see her lose all power in the legs

Why do women box 4x2 mins? Strange

Less time spent fighting and more time spent resting. You know? Because women can do anything men can.

Yep
cocky Cuban got BTFO

I just wonder why they don't do 3 x 2 or 3 x 2.5

i would imagine 3 shorter rounds is closer to the men's than 4 shorter rounds. Maybe I'm thinking about it too hard

I'm wondering if the reason the women wear headgear is to keep their hairpieces in place. Must be a pain having to put your hair in braids/dreads every time you fight.

Why do white women box in America but not white men?

>Mayer
>White

Pick one and only one, Sup Forumstard.

has shields fought yet? She's the only reason to watch womens boxing.

Her weightclass starts sunday

Usually I'm into MMA and women never have problems with theirs haircuts, the real reason is

Bronze medal contest incoming.

Here we go

The Mongoloid looks good

Largely because the Algerian is using his face to block punches.

They look like fighters from two different weight classes, but I guess it doesn't matter so much in three-rounders

>ywn sign up all these Kazakhs and Uzbeks and Mongols and move them to the UK and rip them off as they fight in leisure centres in Wigan

Isn't that more or less what the Germans did with the Turkish, Ukrainian and Balkan fighters?

This next one should be interesting

Youth and power versus experience and subtlety

Canada does it as well

yeah Golovkin originally signed with Universum who buried him on their cards in favour of Felix fucking Sturm

>crowd going wild for a brazilian ref

kek

Screech doing well

Selimov just being overwhelmed

I thought this might happen

If this Azerbeijani boxer was a collection of stocks on the market I would say sellimov before they start really sinking

5.5/10

Have a (You)

The old master is dumped out of the tourney

I think Conceicao may win gold for Brazil at Lightweight

Karl, you're an idiot. Play a record!

Why not Oumiha?
t. a guy who does not follow boxing

Guy totally looks like John Torturro by the way holy shit

>stop hitting yourself
>stop hitting yourself
>stop hitting yourself
>stop hitting yourself

I give Conceicao the edge in clean punching, plus he has more experience and the hometown advantage. It's tough to call but my gut says Conceicao

Alvarez may be the best at the weight but he hasn't looked on top form to me, his work was a little sloppy

>Irelands Michael o'reilly was DQ for doping so the Mexican gets into the last 8
This makes up for that other mexican who pulled out because he got a stomach virus

>doping

even dumber, it was coke, lel

He's not a pikey by any chance?

Another shitty decision.

Middleweight is interesting because Alimkhanuly has beaten Arlen Lopez 3:0, Arlen Lopez has beaten Melikuziev 3:0 and Melikuziev has beaten Alimkhanuly 3:0.

Based on the draw that should give Melikuziev the advantage for gold.

Red has ridiculous levels of reaction speed

What power does the referee have? If he tells the guys to not do something but they keep doing it, can he affect the fight's outcome? Do judges take points off a guy who ignores the ref? Seems to me like he's mostly circumstantial other than counts/cuts/stopping the fight if a boxer is beaten

refs can take away points if boxers foul to a large enough degree

the ref will grab the guy and walk him to the judges and tell them to take points off

Poo In Loo actually has some pretty good amateurs

Really? India's terrible at combat sports though

ah cool. haven't seen it happen. they always seem to get a ton of leeway to me

Ireland's light heavyweight medal hope, Joe Ward, was deducted two points for excessive spoiling a few days ago

the reason you don't see it happen is because fights often get decided by 1 or 2 points

to take off a point as a ref would basically decide the fight a ridiculous amount of the time, and probably net you a car bomb from the losing countries boxer

That was a proper battle

How does poo in loo keep winning?

POO IN THE LOO

by being more skilled and experienced than his opponent?

>poo's dancing

Final bout

Another world class Uzbek

this fucking bogan

...

Shades of Katsidis

Every Irish men's boxer is a pikey...

too slick too Uzbek

Lmao why are Aussies so shit at fighting

The aussie is so slow

First round doesn't count right?

Was he a draw?

Lovely pivots

Possible gold medalist here

aussie ded

He's pounding this aussie

imagine how famous these guys would be if they didn't come from the middle of nowhere and have unpronounceable names

Aussie already lost, he's shell shocked

Was he autistic?

I don't think this semen slurping sport is for me.

this isn't even a fight, guy is getting toyed with since round 1

He did actually catch Melikuziev a handful of times in that final round

Aussies brain has to be scrambled right now

Another great day of boxing tomorrow lads

did I hear that guy was only 20? he was boxing like a wily old slav

Hopefully will be able to tune in tomorrow again, Olympic boxing is so comfy

...

I'm gonna be sad when it's over

didn't look like he was trying the whole time

Same

This tourney has actually put a lot of recent pro boxing to shame

Was it autism?

Next year we'll win the olympics la

Wait, why did the US and Cuba both get bronze in light fly? Why don't they fight each other?
