Duke Regan advanced to the Gold medal match, Keyshawn Davis up next

Great 3rd round from Keyshawn, he advances to the semifinals. Looked like he was gonna allow himself to be outworked but then decided to stand his ground and broke the Russian dude down

A gold for Ragan and Davis would be huge, I like seeing young fighters get leverage. Davis had buzz already, yet Ragan can really use a gold.

In the COL-JPN fight, apparently they robbed the Columbian against Tanaka (Kosei Tanaka’s older brother..obviously not as good). I missed it, yet I saw a clip where Tanaka was beat up bad and needed help getting out of the ring/backstage. Not a good look.

Japan could have sent a much, much, better team, they sent their D team. You would think they would have loaded it up as the host country. A lot of their younger fighters are turning pro much earlier, and decided to skip over the commitment.

Also doesn't help that the NBC Sports app sucks, damn near missed the whole first round of Davis's fight waiting for the shyt to load up and then get past commercials.

I just caught up on the Pugmire article about the failed Canelo/Plant fight and apparently Canelo didn't want to do promotion or participate in Fox shoulder programming for the fight either. Canelo really on some other shyt, this is beyond being a diva.

I don't think this Thurman/Tank talk is serious. Thurman would really hurt him

August update

August update

Pretty evened out, nobody can run this sport and this won't change in the near future, maybe long term

Canelo shouldn't be included as a DAZN/Matchroom fighter imo and idk why WBA Regular is still included but w/e

 

[BOXINGGEMS]

Keyshawn Davis is a future star ... nobody will want that smoke

I probably misspoke when I said Davis had a better chance over Ragan of getting a Gold medal for the US Men...
