After 112 years of amateur competition, professional boxers are fighting in the Olympics. Jared Crick Jersey .All three of them.The International Boxing Associations high-profile scheme to entice prominent pros to compete in Rio de Janeiro hasnt worked.Instead of the star-studded tournament many apparently wanted, only a trio of traditional pros accepted the offer to fight for gold medals in Brazil. Only hardcore boxing fans have ever heard of them: Cameroons Hassan NDam, Thailands Amnat Ruenroeng and Italys Carmine Tommasone.The Rio tournament will be more notable for what the men arent wearing. AIBA is removing headguards for male Olympic fighters for the first time since 1980.The real stars again could be the women, who are back for their second Olympics after providing the best moments in London.Here are some more things to know when the 286-person tournament begins Aug. 6:REIGNING CHAMPSAll three gold medal winners from the inaugural womens boxing tournament in London are back to attempt to defend their titles. Britains Nicola Adams, Irelands Katie Taylor and American middleweight Claressa Shields all stuck with their sport, which has grown rapidly in prominence and quality since womens boxing was added to the Olympic program. In fact, only the dominant Shields is a strong favorite to repeat, given the improved competition at flyweight and lightweight.CAN YOU SEE MEAIBA announced its plan to remove Olympic headgear from the men three years ago, citing research claiming the bulky pads actually cause more concussions than they prevent. The quality of their science is considered dubious by many, but many fighters prefer to compete without the gear, and the sport is undeniably more telegenic when fans can see the fighters faces.UNKINDEST CUTThe biggest problem with the headgear removal is likely to be cuts, which will develop more frequently without the facial protection. Qualifying tournaments have been filled with fighters unable to continue to their next bout after getting cut, and Olympic stars seem likely to meet the same fate.BIG NAMESAIBA has tried for years to become a player in international professional boxing under President Wu Ching-Kuo, but it has succeeded only in nations without an established pro boxing culture. The Olympic-style sports growth in former Soviet republics will be obvious in Rio, where Kazakhstan (12 fighters), Azerbaijan (11), Uzbekistan (11) and Russia (11) will be well-represented along with the likes of Britain (12) and China (11). Cuba (10) has a fighter in every mens weight class, but no women.EVEN THE SCOREAnother big change for Rio is the scoring system, which is no longer based on punch-counting. Fighters will be judged on the 10-point must system traditionally used in pro boxing, with the final scores of each judge reduced to a single number. The final scores in the fights will be announced as 3-0 or 2-1. Unlike the headgear change, the move away from reviled punch-scoring has been greeted with broad approval. Still, it probably wont stop more than half of the losing fighters from claiming they were robbed, just as they do in every Olympic-style boxing tournament.YOUNG AMERICANSThe U.S. team is the historic leader in total Olympic boxing medals and golds, but the Americans are sending just eight fighters to Rio after four men and one woman failed to secure spots through qualifying tournaments. The team might be small, but Shields and lightweight Mikaela Mayer are both medal contenders. The U.S. men didnt win a single medal in London, but touted bantamweight Shakur Stevenson has a great shot to end that drought in Rio.THE GREATESTYoure not seeing things on the schedule: Thats Muhammad Ali competing in Rio. The 20-year-old British flyweight with the conspicuous name is among the medal favorites after training in the same gym as Amir Khan, the English silver medalist in Athens.HES BACKFormer Russian world champion Albert Selimov is best known for losing his first fight in Beijing to Ukraines Vasyl Lomachenko, the two-time gold medalist whose amateur legend truly began with that masterful performance. While Lomachenko reigns as a professional world champion eight years later, Selimov is back at the Olympics, fighting for Azerbaijan as a naturalized citizen. He is a favorite for a medal at lightweight.WATCH OUTCuba, another traditional world power, could return to prominence in Rio after a down Olympic cycle in London. Among its several strong medal contenders are three-time amateur light heavyweight world champion Julio Cesar La Cruz; London flyweight gold medalist Robeisy Ramirez, now fighting at bantamweight; and lightweight Lazaro Alvarez, a three-time world champion in two classes. Darian Stewart Jersey . Collaros, 25, was solid last season, posting a 5-2 record as the starter while incumbent Ricky Ray was injured. Collaros also started Torontos 23-20 regular-season finale loss to Montreal — Ray didnt dress because the Argos had already clinched first in the East Division — but was one of three quarterbacks to play that day. Peyton Manning Jersey . -- Quarterback Will Finch threw for 252 yards and three touchdowns, and Yannick Harou rushed in two scores as the No. http://www.broncosrookiesproshop.com/justin-simmons-broncos-jersey/ . Jon Montgomerys gold medal in skeleton at the Whistler Sliding Centre and his subsequent auctioning off of a pitcher of beer in the village square elevated him to folk-hero status. This story appears in ESPN The Magazines December 12 NFL Chemistry Issue. Subscribe today!How much does Philadelphia Eagles safety Malcolm Jenkins like his bow ties? Enough to start Rock Avenue, a tie manufacturer-and soon a full mens clothing line. Jenkins spoke to us about his pre-game ensemble for the Nov. 13 game between the Eagles and the Falcons at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia.?How would you describe your style??Ive always been a little preppy street. Thats how I would describe it. ?Im not all the way into street wear but I am not all the way into a suit and tie either, so I try to combine that look.?I like to mix in the two worlds and keep it kind of casual, but I own a bow tie company so I use the small pieces to add a little bit of preppy or formal look to a casual style.How do you put this outfit together? Usually I try to pick one piece and start building around it. So I said, okay, these are the jeans I want to wear. Then I said, I want to wear a sweater as I havent worn one in a while and I was unpacking all my winter clothes and I found that sweater. So those two pieces were the staples and then I built around it.You have a fashion show called?Looking Fly. What is that about??Yeah that was a one time thing that the Eagles had that me and my counterpart, safety Rodney McLeod do. If you asked anyone in the Eagles?locker room who the two most?fashionable guys are theyd probably?point out us two. So we did a fun piece where we got to critique the outfits of our teammates as we travel to one of the games.?We get guys all the time asking us for fashion advice, especially the big guys in the locker room. Theyre?trying to figure out what they should wear, if they can pull something off. And the biggest thing, one of D-Line man was trying to figure out if I could give him a contact for a good tailor, because hes trying to get?some suits and things are just not quite fitting right.Do you consult your stylist every Saturday night before the game??I have a really good friend of mine, hes a frat brother I went to school with, actually he went to a school up the street from Ohio State and he does shopping for me and he gives me some options. Hell pick the pieces for me and I kind of put them together as I see fit. If I do a photo shoot, he will style me. But before a game I style myself and put some things together that I have in my closet. If I am stuck or I got a couple of options that I like I will text him pictures of the clothes and he will tell me whats best to go with.?Who do you admire fashion wise? I am not really that big into fashion where I am looking at trends or what everyone else is doing. If I see something I like I will keep it in mind, but a lot of the time I am just online browsing. I will shop at Asos or Urban Outfitters. Urban Outfitters is probably where I buy most of my stuff from. I mix and match from different places.I do suits, but the last two years havve been a bit more casual. Demaryius Thomas Jersey. This year we had a change in our dress code for when were traveling so Ive been doing a little more suits this year. But when I can, I prefer to be a bit more casual.?How did this outfit come about? I picked this outfit out the night before the game. I do it before I go to sleep, it takes me 15 minutes.John Varvatos sweater: I opened up my vacuumed sealed box of sweaters that I stored last year and pulled this one out. I bought this a while ago and never got around to wearing it so I decided on this one. I got this off of Gilt group, I used to use Gilt a lot, I havent shopped in a long time, but that was a site where I dropped a ton of money.Ashbury hat: I got this hat from a gifting suite at the Super Bowl. The NFLPA had an event and they had a bunch of companies there. It was kind of random, I went to this event and I got a free hat.Rock Avenue bow tie:? I started wearing clip-ons in 2010, as a way to standout in the locker room. The next year I finally learned I wanted a tie to reflect my own style and personality and my wife suggested that I make my own. So I bought some fabric and a sewing machine and Googled how to make a bow tie. I made four or five by hand, and they were wearable but I realized pretty quickly sewing is not my strong suit.It snowballed into me finding a manufacturer in New Orleans and I developed the line and got the fabric. My friend Eric who is the stylist and who I consult with, hes a partner in it. We are transitioning into a full mens clothing line.This one is a reversible tie so its made of two different patterns, one is a solid brown chambray, the other is a floral pattern, brown & black. I didnt want it to be too loud, I wanted it to blend in with the brown in the hat and the burgundy in the sweater and the shoes.?ASOS Always Rare jeans: These jeans are definitely out of my comfort zone. I wouldnt necessarily pick them for myself but my stylist suggested I wear them.The British Belt Company Holkham Satchel: I met them in NYC at a trade show. We were there selling bow ties, we walked around and ran into this company so I bought a duffel bag and messenger bag that goes with it. Inside the bag: my iPad, a notebook, some headphones and chargers.To Boot New York Hobson boots: These just go well with my outfit. I got them a few years ago from Boyds in Philadelphia. I think I got these for free because we did a charity fashion event there and one of the perks for doing the event was a free suit and some shoes. ?Meaux Moisture beard oil: My wife has an all-natural skin and hair product company. I use all of her products for my beard. She has a beard oil and a beard wash. So that is what I use. Ive been bearded the last four years, the beard is permanent now because I decided to go bald this season. ? Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
