Quota for  in -52kg for whenever the games are going to happend!

Viliam Tanko lost his direct quota match in the -57kg to

 

Now my question is, if RUS will be banned of the Olympics or for example Russian Boxing authorities already annoounced they will not send their boxers to Tokyo if Russia will have to compete in Tokyo under neutral flag. Will Tanko receive the reallocation ? or the quota will be reallocated in other way ? Pitty he lost today, t would be a huge step and moment for our Roma minority, the guy would be the first slovak olympian from this minority..

Why are (in non-virus circumstances) quarter finals and so on even held in these tournaments when a spot in the QF is all one cares about?

A good question! I suppose completing the tournament enables them to present "medals" and perhaps more importantly give boxers more experience of competing in an Olympic-style event. Otherwise I can't think of any reason for it. I can't believe they are really going to ask the sixteen boxers who have already qualified for Tokyo to turn up for the rest of the qualifying tournament in May or whenever it resumes when it would serve no purpose and only expose them to the risk of infection from Coronavirus.

Anyway, they have cancelled the rest of it!

To be resumed in May subject to circumstances.

Now the replays aren't even available anymore on OC, either because 'usage license has expired' (WTF?) or 'Something went wrong while setting up a Google DAI stream'. Right.
