Boxing IOC Olympic Qualifier 2 2024

[phelps 8,292]

 Malanga lost to a random  guy...

 

we won't improve our total number of fighters after this tournament, as expected

 

surely our best boxers were already qualified, but still we have to regret that infamous robbery at the 2023 European Games, where Federico Serra was denied by a bunch of clearly corrupted judges, who actually destroyed his career, as he has never been the same fighter after that day

@Ogreman who are your picks in the Canadian brackets in women’s 54kg and women’s 66kg now that Drabik and Chernokolenko are out?

Your incessant complaints of robberies never cease to amuse me

Those who don't complain of robberies in boxing usually complain harder when it's one of their compatriot's turn.

Considering almost every close 3-2 decision at the last qualification tournament went against Irish fighters, that's a pretty ridiculous statement. And Rio 2016 our fighters were on the end of a lot of robberies too, and there's been plenty more over the years. I didn't see the Walsh Zakhariev fight so I can't comment on that fight specifically, but being upset because your fighter lost a bout which you feel they should have won is no reason to make blanket, inaccurate statements. Boxing judging has always been a source of contention given how subjective it is, personally I feel the scoring system for London 2012 was the best I can remember and I wish they had stuck with that.

Here is video

So you will be able to evaluate (interestingly, that comments to the video during livestream are in favour of blue corner) ))

 

No blanket statements, of course, but this bout was robbed, as for me. (edit. we lost 4 bouts today, but this one is not OK)

 

I would say - the best system was in 2008, when the scores were shown live during the rounds to everyone.
