This may not matter to those who do not take boxing seriously or not trying to make Olympics, but the National date was change from Jan 26 to the first 2 weeks of June. They change the date because 07 is an Olympic year and since it was push back the qualifications have change and the qualifications are you have to win one of the following tournaments.......
National Pal Championships(Oct 1-7 2006),
Armed Forces Championships (Dec 11-16,2006),
Eastern Regional Trails (Mid-April 2007),
Golden Gloves Championship (April 30-may 05,2007),
Western Regional Trails (2nd week May 2007),
Midwestern Regional Trails (3rd week May 2007)
Then you have the 2007 National Championships and you have to make it to the quarterfinals to advance to the Olympic box offs and on a side note The Champions of Pal Games, Golden Gloves, and Armed Forces Will Be Placed in the Quarterfinals of the Nationals tournament
The Push back is good and bad, it is bad for me because I just wanted to go to the National in Jan and rest for awhile then get ready for Golden Gloves but then it is good for others cause it gives them time to get serious and train.
Now it will be rude for me not to introduce myself they call me the Souljah and The New Breed I am not an average boxer I have spared and got the best of pros like Mitchell and Mark too sharp Johnson cause I am from D.C So I sparred pros from D.C. I missed the Nationals last year due to a fractured hand. I box at 165 and only one boxer got the best of me and it was Gary Russel Jr who is also from D.C and he also beats up on Pros you can check him out here http://www.usaboxing.org/86_1406.htm.
Me and him got into it cause he was being cocky and I got tired of it so I called him out and if you follow amateur boxers you will know that Him and Raushee Warren are the only 2 to bring home a medal from MIANYANG CITY, CHINA ( but I do not want to talk about that cause U.S.A got blasted being over there in china.)
