de la hoya, roy jones jr, andre ward etc etc all participated in the olympics. but alright, lets be honest:
of course olympic boxing aint anywere close to professional, neither are 90% of the other sports that have any popularity outside the olympics. people just watch it cause its part of the olympics, you dont expect it to be on the same level.
and the kid i posted is far from a joke...

The USA track team gotta redeem themselves after the embarrassment they put up in 08'. Jamaica pretty much ran over them. Definitely will be checkin for them.

lol @ a problem for usa's team, i aint even worried bout them, no disrespect.
That nigga is a problem for Jamaica as well cause we wanna win but on the low niggaz love seeing Bolt win and blake does not give a fuck.
Unless asafa gets the bubble guts again, I fully expect Jamaica to get the quinella(1,2,3) in the 100 meters.

here's a vid of dude:
=relmfu
i'm gonna get some tickets for the boxing events, cant wait for the olympics to start
Why isn't he pro already at 25? he's got pretty fast hands but just seems odd that by time he'll be pro he'll be close to 26 .... anyone know the reason for this?
