lol yeah i noticed that when i saw him fight, like some sort of tourettes or something!
I liked the look of him, really quick, agile.
Also for us from the UK shame Billy Joe Saunders went out earlier, the cuban looked pretty good. Jeffries has gone through though which is good, only saw the first round as had to come to work but by all accounts he just scraped through (level points ref awarded the decision to him). Bradley Saunders fights later today hopefully he can go through.

Is a shame that one of our prospect for bring Medal to P.R. , Carlos Negron on 81 Kilos lost 9-3 and was eiminated in his second fight with the Kazajistan Yerkebulan Shynaliyev.....................
Negron is the thirth Boricua boxer that is eliminated in the Olympics Boxing , we now have only the Hopes on Jose Pedraza in the 60 Kilos and McWillian Arroyo in the 54 Kilos............
Negron been very estatic on his ofensive , he kept at the distance and didnt attack his opponent , while his Corner and the Team been asking him to throw punches ................
Shynaliyev dominated the combat since the beginning , Negron in the thirth round got 2 points , but was too late for him with the score of 8-2..................
At the conclusion of the fight Negron looked very upset , he didnt attend the Local Media and either the International Media , he didnt want to talk with journalist.....................
Tomorrow Jose Pedraza will face to the French Daouda Sow in his second fight......................
Heres some pics of Negron fight................

Irish Light Welter was hard done by today.
Losing the first round 5-1 he launched a tremendous effort to fginish the fight at level pegging, he lost on countback against the aggressive Dominican.
Nevin boxed much more conservatively and cleanly and was unfairly penalised 2 points in the first round.
Observers such as Andy Lee and Michael Carruth voiced their disgust at the referee, but he'll be back in 4 years![]()

not the best day for teaM GB, bradley saunders and billy joe saunders (no relation) both gone out.
I'm fuming Gavin pulled out. He would have walked it.
There was a Heavyweight Ukranian named Oleksandr Usyk that i was very impressed with.
I say if he makes it out of the quarter finals in a few days, then he's my pick to win the gold in the heavyweight division.
