Today USA Lightheavyweight Andre Ward upset gold medal favorite Yevgeny Makarenko 23-16 thereby assuring himself of at least a bronze medal and having a good shot at the gold medal. Makarenko had not lost an international fight since 1999 and was the two time world champion. Ward has not lost a fight in six years.

Excuse this oldman's exuberance as other then betting against the USA men's basketball team, I am currently holding a future on Ward to win the gold at +650 from Pinnacle. He was listed as third choice.

Semi-finals scheduled for Friday, August 27 with the Finals scheduled for closing day of the games, Sunday, August 29.
