This boxing situation might actually escalate into the entire Paris Olympics being cancelled. In fact, that is extremely likely!

Do you think France might be completely cancelled? And if it was there would a really nice ocean between Belgium and Spain where you could hold Olympic surfing instead of having to go to Tahiti.

:CUB Olympic Boxing team accepted the invitation from our Boxing federation to have a training camp here in the purpose to also help (read: Teach) our boxers obviously :yikes:

 

In this occassion they visited Slovak Olympic Museum in Bratislava just to apparently play some table hockey there :p

First time I see table football with hockey players :p

Serious ?

 

it is quite widespread, admittedly not as much as table football though.

:USA will boycott both world championships held by the IBA this year. Governance issues, along with the IBA’s decision to let BLR/RUS boxers compete with their flag and anthem, cited as mains factors for the boycott.

Rumours are that  Australia, Canada, England, Ireland and the Netherlands will follow the USA and not send any boxers

There will be much bigger problems if boycotts extend to continental multi-sport events. I’m not sure how many of those events are overseen by the IBA still, but boycotts could leave Olympic qualification a mess (assuming the sport is still on the program at the end of the year.)

I don't think have the IBA have any part in the Olympic qualifying system (same as Tokyo)

Are they not governing some of the multi-sports games tournaments? I thought they still had a hand in some?

      Finals are set    An all-Canadian final on the women’s side, as Team Homan looks to win their third title of the season (and improve to 18-1) against a hungry Team Einarson who have had a less than ideal start to the season, they were also the last Canadian team to beat Homan over a year ago (same event coincidentally), while on the men’s side it’ll be a battle between Olympic medalists as Team Mouat goes against Team Gushue!

      yeah I know    I mean it wasn't a different team specific for that sport. it was the same CC team participating in both sports.

      from what I heard , Iran has registered to participate in Alpine, CC skiing, SkiMo, Skating (they didn't mention which discipline ) and ... (this one will be surprising ) ... Curling    Curling is not a sure thing yet, the NOC has to approve it. the team is very new. I mean very very new, only few months ago they gathered few people to start the sport  you can't lose 100-0 in Curling, right ?    anyway it will be first time ever Iran participating outside of FIS disciplines. ( I didn't count Ski orienteering in 2011 which was the same as CC)   nobody cares about winter sports here. therefore finishing last won't have consequences. they can afford sending very weak teams. (which is not the case for the main Asian Games)

      11 medals out of 15 athletes. for whatever reason  we sent an incomplete team of 16 athletes (only 1 left for tomorrow) I wish I knew why  I can guess though   the result is indeed very good in such a competitive sport but lack of talent was never our problem in taekwondo. it was always there probably much more than any other country.    but the problem is the transition to the senior team. most of previous junior world champions never even made the senior team. (the new federation is doing better in this regard though)
