    12-12! Thought the French man had taken that one.

    That Algerian guy that got chucked out for his 800m run is running in the final of the 1500. It would be pretty funny if he got a medal.

    Who's the girl that commentates on the BBC boxing (not on tonight) . She talks about training with the GB girls when they are on. Presumably a fighter that didnt qualify?

    Conlon doing well. The French lad will no doubt tire with all the punches he's missing.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,836 ✭✭✭Colmustard


    TUT did you hear the french talking how do they understand each other.

    How come they don't speak properly like us.

    I think he is going to do it.

    You'd have to think the surrender monkey will be tired after all that.

    If he starts throwing cheese Conlon could be in trouble.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 769 ✭✭✭Diego Maradona


    Think Conlon has this, he is landing more punches than the Frenchman.


  • Posts: 50,630 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    It's very hard to call.

    Cool, by 4 points.

    But the judging is still nuts, makes no sense most of the time, that should have been closer. Same for a lot of the other fights.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 12,333 ✭✭✭✭JONJO THE MISER


    If only drinking was a olypmic sport.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,273 ✭✭✭racso1975


    Fair fuks to ya boy


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,591 ✭✭✭✭Aidric


    Poor fight I thought but delighted with the result. Nice to see him pull it out in the final round when it mattered most. Good sign.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,231 ✭✭✭Hercule Poirot


    The Algerian took the gold - nice!!

    Well done Michael Conlon!!

    People need to realise it's not the number of punches thrown it's the amount that is landed on the opponents face. Conlon's defence was world class there, he's an very good technical fighter. That French guy was very wild with a lot of his punches.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,576 ✭✭✭garv123


    Just as well no one on boards are the judges :D

    I think it was the 2 clear punches he seem to sneak in at the end, I thought it was closer as well.

    The British boxer Selby fighting now, likely next opponent for Conlon, ranked world number 1.
