Most probably that's why the pro box date is pushed back...

Guys, really with the form Vijender is showing, he will be a real deal if he can go to Rio. Do let us know if you get any information on whether there is any possibility for him. I think this should be a bigger question than Narsingh/Sushil :)

I disagree. Narsingh won the bronze at the World Championships and Sushil with his experience and confidence for me is a gold medal candidate. I think whoever goes is a sureshot medalist. On the other hand, with AIBA ruling the roost in boxing, a knockout in each round is required to guarantee a medal :wall:

Still I think Vijender is also a sureshot medal contender. He is in super form @Suneet

But we can never be so sure about boxing with lack of federation back home and lack of voice in the tournaments. We have only 1 boxer qualified so far and it is impossible after seeing growth of Indian boxer in recent past. Boxing is not a fair game:facepalm:

Sushil Kumar has moved the Delhi high court requesting for a trial. Stupid feet dragging WFI couldn't take a decision fearing a court case and not exactly that has happened. Why didnt WFI decide one way or the other earlier?

Can we get two quota in judo? Pakistani media is claming that they have got two wildcards in shooting? Is it possible, i think except swimming and athletics, IOC didn't allow two wild cards for a nation.

    • Those are the national junior championships, national championships are in Steinkjer, starting tomorrow: FIS | Steinkjer (NOR) - Event Details - Cross-Country
    • Nice for them, but also kind of too bad they pick the exact same two as last time. Would have been nice to see Regina Martinez for example (although I'm not sure that would have been logistically possible, depending on how they're going to do the flag bearer thing in the first place).

    • One of my favorite songs from the early 2000s that I listened to on a cassette on my walkman      
    • For me 20 medals will be good. And if more there are? Super. However, I prefer not to get my hopes up too much, so as not to be disappointed later.
    • If you're still taking suggestions, I tought the following:   Team Madison format.   17 teams of 2 "riders", randomly drawn. Teams can be named for famous "endurance" track cyclists. 4 intermediate "sprints", one after a voting block, in which the top 8 teams will score according to this formula: (10, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1). The order in which team score for a sprint are determined by the total number of "medals" won by both members of the team during the block. Ranking will be sorted according to the number of gold medals, then silver, then bronze. If there's two or more teams with same number of points, the medals of best individual performer of each team will be considered to break the tie. If the tie remains, then team's total points during the block will be used to break it. If the team fails to receive a single medal during each block, it will be considered to "lose lap" and 20 points will be substracted from their score. If the team fails to score at least 1 point during each block, it will be an automatic DNF for the team. If both members of the team get a medal from a single jury, it will be considered to "gain lap" and 20 points will be added to their score. A team can only win an additional lap per voting block. After the 4 intermediate, a "final" sprint will be recorded, in which points will be doubled (20, 16, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4 & 2). Ranking for the final sprint will take into account the total medals won during the event.   What do you think?
    • I don't medal pick, per se... I assign probabilities/expected-values and total them up. So I don't have a gold medal estimate... but if you want one, divide those numbers by three and you'll be pretty close!   I imagine Norway, Italy and Netherlands and maybe Canada will probably skew a bit higher on golds, and US, Germany, and Sweden will skew a little lower... so maybe: Norway - 14 US - 11 Germany - 11 Italy - 11 Canada - 10 Austria - 8 Netherlands - 8 Japan - 7 Sweden - 6 France.- 6   I was surprised seeing Italy come in that high, I was figuring 22-23, but I guess they've been do well on the World Cups. 
    • If you were to predict top- 10 for the number of gold medals, what would it look like?     For me, as an Italian, any result for Italy: +20 medals would be OK (if that will include 6-7 gold medals). The trauma of Turin 2006 is too great
    • Doesn't really help that two of the strongest countries in that particular sport are banned from the team event for well known reasons.
