it should be 4 men and 3 women's wild cards for  if I remember correctly.

 

the remaining spots must be earned through the regular OQTs.

the host country quotas are not added, they are given only at the end of the qualifying tournaments?

they're "reserved" for the Host Nation.

 

if  qualify more fighters than the available places minus the wild cards, those will be reallocated at the end of the qualifying process (they should go to the World ranking)

There's no quotas going to world ranking under the IOC qualification pathway although it was included in the original IBA proposal.

 

France can qualify through the European Games and the 1st World Qualifier. After the 1st world qualifier, France will advise which, if any, host quotas they are going to use. Any that aren't used will be allocated through the 2nd world qualifier. 

 

Of the 9 weight classes where France could use a host quota, they are still active in 6 - 3 on the men's side and 3 on the women's.

very tough task for  Malanga, especially after today's clash between Cavallaro and Walsh.

So even though there’s already been a very close decision for Italy over Ireland, you still bang the drum that Ireland gets lucky decisions and Italy doesn’t?

yep! it's a very well known tactic...it's called "piagnisteo preventivo" (= "preventive whining")... 

 

it works more often than not

End of day 4 and over half of the weight classes are now at quarter-final stage.

 

Turkey move to the top of the standings having lost no bouts today. They currently have 11 boxers still in the competition - including all 6 women.

 

Italy lost a couple of close decisions today, so they move to 10 fighters still in with a chance of quota. 

 

Ireland's women continue to move serenely through the draw with all 6 still in contention although they did lose another male boxer today. Their total is now 9.

 

France didn't lose anyone today so still have 9 fighters in play.

 

Ukraine and Poland both have 8 fighters left.

 

GBR lost another 2 bouts today to leave them with 7 fighters still in with chance of qualifying - 4 on the women's side and 3 on the mens.
