Re: So much for USA boxing
Comparing amateur boxing to pro boxing is like comparing MMA to Kung Fu or Snooker to Pool. It’s two completely (Though similar) different sports.
Maybe society has changed now and the black kids that dominated the USA amateur scene back in the 50’s, 60’s, 70’s have more options now.
I don’t know the answer but remember the USA amateur boxing still does top the all time medal list and when you consider that they have stunk the place out for the past 3 or 4 Olympics that just shows how strong the USA Olympic boxing team previously were.

Re: So much for USA boxing
The handling of the amateurs has been piss poor, we used a trainer that couldn't sit next to the ring. The good news is now that we know there's a problem and it's this drastic then steps will be taken to remedy the situation.

Dominated the USA amateur scene, not the world!!!!!Maybe society has changed now and the black kids that dominated the USA amateur scene back in the 50’s, 60’s, 70’s have more options now.
There options are just as good, in fact it is easier to get into boxing nowadays than ever.
