The Brackets are Drawn in Six Weight Divisions at the 2012 USA Boxing National Championships by Julie Goldsticker/USA Boxing

(COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO) – The tournament brackets for the 2012 USA Boxing National Championships were drawn in six weight divisions on Saturday in preparation for Sunday’s action at the Fort Carson Special Events Center.

Due to the large number of registered athletes in the male lightweight, light welterweight, middleweight, light heavyweight, heavyweight and super heavyweight classes, an additional day of competition was added for those weight classes. The event draw for the remaining men’s weight divisions and the female weight classes will take place on Sunday.

The winners in the seven men’s unqualified weight divisions, which are the six weight classes being contested on Sunday as well as light flyweight, will advance to the final international Olympic qualifying tournament.
