Germany has slightly changed the team for the European Qualifier. Christina Hammer will participate instead of Sarah Scheurich in women's 75kg.

Why is it possible? Draw will be diffrent? 

[EselTheDonkey 838]

According to the SID-article (German news agency) it is possible in all disciplines that haven't started last year. Hammer won the deciding fight against Scheurich and got nominated.

She will fight with the swedish girl or the draw will be changed?

Other countries can join even they missed London event? 

Poor news for Poland - she has points in Olympic Ranking and can get the quota via ranking ;(

Russia will send  probably Sandakova ....

I hate boxing qualifications.

They don't publish entry list or something, so we don't know who is eligible (look men's 57kg, boxer from Canada - one start).

Not surprising.

 

Sadly, I don't see her court challenge being successful. The qualification document was clear on how the quotas would be redistributed should the continental qualifier not take place. She would have to prove that the organizers deliberately cancelled the event in order to fix the results.

 

Also there hasn't been a proper boxing event in over a year and there isn't exactly much time to schedule a new one so even if she's successful all she would end up doing is prevent any athlete from Pan America to compete at the Olympics.
