HW prospects..

Did anybody see the other two fights? How did Cammarelle look?

Cammarelle looked quite good but the Ecuadorian just stood in front of him looking for one big shot throughout. He did land one towards the end that made Cammarelle's legs sag a bit but by that point he'd already had a few standing counts and was well behind.

Zhilei (China) stops Linde (Australia) in the 2nd.

I remember the Duva's were interested in signing Zhang to a pro contract. Maybe he'll go pro after these games.

Joshua (Great Britain) beat Savon (Cuba) on points 17-16.

Home cooking. I thought Savon should have won.

I'm inclined to agree with you, especially with the third round which I thought Savon dominated by four or five points.

Can't see it myself. It was close, but home cooking is a bit wide of the mark IMO. Savon was light on his feet but flattered to deceive, he was not that difficult to hit and Joshua caught him time and again. Savon may have deserved a wider points margin in the third but the same could be claimed for Joshua in the first two rounds.

Plus a lot of Savons shots were partially blocked. I think it was a fair decision! Close but Joshua taking it.

Medzhidov defeated Omarov 17-14 in a slugfest.

Omarov seemed to buzz Medzhidov a few times...Medzhidov's better technique & conditioning won him the fight IMO.
