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?  

 

for the actual Olympic Tournament seeding purpose...

 

these OQTs give fighter more points in the OQR than any other tournament taken into consideration...

 

winning the OQT basically is the only way to keep the hope alive to be one of the 4 seeded athletes in the actual Olympic Tournament...

That sounds sort of stupid but at least it's clear, thanks

One of the Croatian boxers tested positive for Coronavirus after this.

 

Good luck to his opponent.

Two Turkish boxers and their head coach have the new coronavirus as well, none of them fought against a Croatian. Good luck to more opponents.

 

Serhat Güler has been named (75kg), who fought against Mikhael Ostroumov of Israel.

 

Has the Croatian been named @dcro?

Toni Filipi, heavyweight.

Small correction on Turkey: apparently Güler and their head coach did test positive, but media seems to be wrong in saying two boxers tested positive. The federation does say (if Google translates well enough) two more boxers are being tested, but their results haven't come back yet and so they haven't named them yet.

And now Güler is negative

AIBA of all federations is using this to criticise IOC.

They must be enjoying this soooo hard right now at AIBA HQ ?????

Andrej "Bandi" Csemez tested positive, first Slovak positive athlete. Our only quite competitive boxer. The guys from the federation are so pissed right now about the organizers of the tournament...since I guess, we are not the only one, it will be interesting to see what will happen in the next days

 

this can easily finish at some court
