Of course. The 84 team I believe it was, which consisted of Breland, Holyfield, Whitaker, and Meldrick Taylor did really well at the Olympics, but I don't think the Cubans or the Russians competed that year. That makes a HUGE differnce, the Cubans and Russians had the best fighters besides the USA.
