Of all the sports in the Olympics , boxing is probably the most susceptible to a poor official / referee . Has always been thus , but boxing has always refused to have more than one official in charge of a bout . The sport got away with it early in its sporting career , as there was not the means to record what actually happened , but film has changed all that . Except for the prime fact re one referee , and presumably no appeal procedure . Most sensible sports have embraced technology ( except soccer notably ) , just needs a bit of will and sense to sort out a better system than they have , but I suspect there are vested interests always within the boxing scene who want to be able to have more than allotted influence on results ( amateur and pro ) .
So live with it boxing fans ( not one myself although competitors from my neck of the woods are always our best hopes for medals , sometimes despite officialdom ) . |

Ridiculous. The guy from the land of the rising sun. Is that ok?

Lol, they've deleted my post.
To summarise, the Japanese fella had his appeal upheld against the decision in his fight with the Azerbaijani. The ref was a total disgrace. BF clearly don't agree with someone pointing out the justice in this. |

Can anyone tell me where on earth Ogogo scored 7 points in that last round, this is why the old scoring system should have stayed, Ogogo was getting points for shadow boxing
|
|
By:
Must admit.. I can't see how we won that. Boxing a very dodgy sport.
|
|
By:
dont know why the scores arent on the screen

By:
khytrov is out yet people want to back him on the middleweight outright market,strange
|
|
By:
His not out yet.
I think ogogo is out. Countback score added wrongly I believe |
|
By:
there was an appeal with result standing,ogogo goes through
|
|
By:
ogogo through,sky sports says the appeal was thrown out
|
|
By:
ref has been kicked out following the japanese fight, 2 others suspended
|
|
By:
where do they get these refs from?
|
|
By:
there was second appeal but it was also rejected.
Sergey Bubka (head of ukrainian olympic committee) told that Ukraine will go to Lausanne court to find justice about this decision in Khytrov's match. |
|
By:
the refs in Khytrov's match were from Argentina, Marocco, Italy, Poland and France
|
|
By:
I think that Khytrov should meet these refs somewhere near Whitehart lane stadium in the dark hours :))))
