The IOC has removed boxing and weightlifting from the summer games in LA. Pretty bullshit if you ask me

Boxing I bet but weightlifting sucks. The boxing was just too comically corrupt even for the IOC

Boxing this summer was great, the Olympics finally had a format that was fun. Yeah historically it’s been a black eye, but this year was really fun and pretty straightforward

Removing weightlifting is crazy. Removing boxing is probably a fine decision even if I’m a fan of it.

I don't think it's a "confirmed dropped" situation. It's more that the federations in charge of those sports have been told they're not on the list but they can get back on the list if they make whatever changes the ioc is looking for

I think the international wieghtlifting chief basically gets constant bribes to overlook failed drugs tests and wanted that more than the olympics https://www.nytimes.com/2021/07/28/sports/olympics/weight-lifting-olympics.html

Artur Beterbiev vs Marcus Browne tonight. Sneaky big/relevant fight. Browne is world class, 5 years younger, the bigger man, and a pretty slick technician. None of that has mattered in the past against Beterbiev, but it's an intriguing fight anyway.

Is a great matchup imo. Beterbiev is getting up there in years but as they say power is the last thing to go, and he's got plenty of it.

Dr.Radical posted:I missed the fight until now. Is that gash due to a punch or from a headbutt? Was an unintentional headbutt. They both suffered cuts but Beterbiev's was nasty. The doctor said he'd give Beterbiev one more round after the 4th round and the ref just let it keep going.

42-0 Gilberto Ramirez fights tomorrow. Hopefully 2022 sees fights between him, Beterbiev, Dmitry Bivol and Joe Smith.

Kovalev in his peak destroyed guys and looked invincible doing it. Beterbiev doesn't look invincible, but he does look unstoppable. Would love to see him against Canelo in the next year, that's the fight to make.

Would love to see him against Canelo in the next year, that's the fight to make. The difference between Kovalev and Beterbiev is that by all accounts, Beterbiev is a gym rat. Kovalev basically became washed overnight in the second Andre Ward fight and his lifestyle clearly caught up to him around that point. The Kovalev that Canelo fought was quite clearly a shadow of his former self. Beterbiev is still essentially in his prime and if a Canelo/Beterbiev fight is made in 2022 I'd personally favour Beterbiev. Guy is a loving wood chipper.

Chisora-Parker is getting fun. Delboy is massively down on rounds, been knocked down a couple of times but he keeps swinging away.
