The Olympics Thread, London 2012, Games of the XXX Olympiad, 27th July - 12th August

[RFUS]

He's dominating here. Surely got this. Surely.

Go on John Joe you crafty little bugger.

 

[sheeds]

You'd think the 3 points would be enough and although he's surprised me nevin as done really really well here , bit of a shock if he does it

 

[tsubaki]

If he hasnt won that its a disgrace.

 

[Phyllis Stein]

The Cuban kept eating right hands all through that entire bout.

 

[Phyllis Stein]

19 - 14 Nevin wins.
5th seed beats first seed.
He won every round.

Get in.

He's a very, very intelligent boxer mate. The Cubans, as we all know, are no mugs but he made him look like one.

Well in JJ lad.

 

[Cena]

Great fight and great result for Nevin, Irish having a great Olympics

 

[RFUS]

Oh ffs. I heart Shimizu but now I have to hope he loses.

Normally I would agree, but that Cuban lad had Neymar-esque hair - very hard to feel respect for him.

Definitely , I've watched that Cubans fights and I thought he'd have way too much but he was well well beaten

Shimizu really is boss, albeit Campbell is much better than him.

 

[Hibbosculturedrightboot]

The Olympics are boss.

*approaches mental breakdown and informs the kind men in white suits that it is ALL ijjysmith's fault*

Shimizu really is boss, albeit Campbell is much better than him.

He's just really endearing. As Richie Woodhall's said, he's not the best boxer but he has fantastic endeavour and persistence, and his fitness is excellent. All of his fights are really entertaining because of his ballsy boxing style.

But Campbell's going well here.

This - he is clearly shattered physically has been battered throughout this and he is still coming forward and throwing punches. Its fantastic he has got a bronze medal.

So glad. He was outboxed there completely but I'm happy earlier on they accepted his appeal and tossed out that horrible Azerbaijan cheat. Shimizu definitely deserves his medal but Campbell deserves the final. Quality boxing.
