Damir Plantić secured a medal in the light heavyweight category.

 

Nice to see that we still have good boxers after both of our Rio Olympians switched to pros.

Very disappointing championships for us, only 2 quotas for the Worlds...  Only Daniel Asenov had a great performance in reaching the final and going for a defence of his 2015 title.

Amount of quotas is decided by success at previous World Championships.

Because European boxers have won the most medals at the last 3 championships they get more quota

And here we go...Jess will very likely compete for Azerbaijan Her coach and father announced that the Azeri already contacted them with great offer of citizenship, interesting salary, a individual coaching staff and many others different benefits...(source in SVK article : like Kenya winning Ice Hockey Championships https://sport.aktuality.sk/c/285851/ako-keby-kena-vyhrala-sampionat-v-hokeji/ )

 

I mean this really sucks..she is only 16 for god sake, we will never have again any similar talent in this sport, and such big country only wait to stole everything everywhere..really unfair..

No way you can blame her and her father (I mean, who's gonna say no to a shitload of money and financial security for probably a long time?), but damn, I f*cking hate those Azerbaijan sports rats.
