She wasn`t at her best and it was scrappy but the judging for that fight was shocking.How on earth they scored the 3rd round for the other girl i`ll never know.She definatly won the fight as far as i`m concerned,terrible decision.

Glad someone else felt the same as me. I didn't think she boxed particularly well looked very nervous. But one thing was certain in my mind and that was that she didn't lose the last round!

Was pleased with Joshua's performance, particularly coming on the back of his previous fight in the competition.

Yeh i was expecting more reaction to the scoring in the Marshall fight on the forums considering the hystiria i have seen about the Joshua - Savon fight.

I think the fight might have provoked more of a reaction if it hadn't been such a dire spectacle.

i didnt see it buy didnt Dzycho struggle with some young aussie early doors?

No.

Dychko easily beat a German and a Canadian to get to the semis, while the Australian superheavyweight was stopped in the opening round by Zhang.

Dychko struggled in a winning effort against a young Croatian at the World Championships though; he received two standing counts in the third and was clearly hurt.

Close decision goes against British boxer.

Did I just see a pig fly by my window?

Stalker on his way to a robbery win here, no doubt

meh, he prob did enough in the end

oh wow

That was a good fight.

Stalker can feel a touch unlucky there. That last round was never 9-9.

Stalker was lucky in his first fight (very lucky imo) and unlucky in his second...karma?

The first and the second rounds were very equal, but the last one Tom Stalker was much better. He was robbed. Everybody with no idea of boxing can be a judge in this sport?

I guess two wrongs make a right!

Scoring is frustratingly inconsistent, as usual.

It's reached the point where a few medallists at this games won't be genuinely deserving.

Tom stalker won that fight and deserved to go through..... With the cuban judge judging looks like its pay back time ,for the bad decision that the cuban got against Josh what a shame lovely lad.

Stalker was unlucky wasn't he, thought he clearly won that final round, nothing in the other two.

Gutted for Stalker. All that graft to be robbed. He's 28 years old, what a waste of time.

The first was close, second was Stalker's and the third was Stalker's by a mile. Horrendous decision.

Agreed, its ridiculous. Feel sorry for the lad, but hopefully go on to have a good career.

yes it was one of many bad calls,one guy i want to see go out is the italian russo he did nothing but hold then slipped in one or two punches now and then,hoping he gets the boot by disqualification
