Is it just a question of knowing how to put the gloves on straight?
How does this nation manage to get so many qualified,this time 11 qualifiers,joint second to the USA on 12.
Have NEVER won a boxing gold,last medal won,silver in 1988 and prior to that 2 bronze in 1960.

He qualified by reaching the quarter finals of the championships in Azerbaijan.
3 of your boxers qualified by beating contestants from The Cook islands,Tonga and PNG,what is going to happen to them when they are up against Cubans,Russians,Uzbeki's,Ukranians or Thai's in their bouts? |

I'm not sure what you want them to do? They can't move geographically
End of the day all the national olympic committees want to have the greatest representation for their athletes. If it is through Oceania for the Australians then so be it |
