It certainly is a shame for him. As he said in his interview after the event. An Olympic record in qualy. Pity they don't carry the scores forward. Positive is that he's already talking about the next Olympics.
It was a cracking fight....the Frenchwoman fought her way to try to win and she very nearly did. Nicola Adams held on and did herself and GB proud A very popular charismatic person too
watching the amateurs here it is clear to me many in fhe professional ranks would struggle to win Olympic medals.

So sad for him. He is such a nice guy and he must be feeling bad. He hasn't let anyone down - these things 'happen'.

I haven't watched much of the boxing. Have pro's won any medals so far?
No pros in the Olympics. Its for amateurs.
The ban on professionals competing in the Olympics was dropped some time back in the 1980s.
Added: just checked - it was 1986
