Tyler didn't lose twice. His lost was the first in the finals. He is from Roanoake, VA not DC but won the DC franchise of the GG competition. In the quarterfinals Nathanial James defeated Jerome Turner of OKlahoma-Kansas in the quarterfinals. It was a typo on USA Boxing's results page. GG is not a double elimination tournament.
congrats tyler from another DC heavyweight! we should spar sometime. i hope you go to eastern or western trials. luke runion
Thanks for the correction, Luke! Enjoyed meeting you a couple of weeks ago!
Turner boxes out of Roanoke and his coach is Maynard Quisenberry. He has sparred extensively with Juan Carlos Robles.
Luke was conscious enough to post on this blog on Sunday? :-O
