I've seen some bad officiating in my time, but that takes the entire biscuit. Got to feel for the Jananese lad.
It was disgraceful.

Now the next guy from Italy has won, because the other guy hasn't turned up.
And they say professional boxing is crazy.

When he finally takes his gloves and headgear off he throws them on the floor and walks out. Did the right thing as well. The man has just had his Olympic dream ruined by a complete c**t.
4 years of training to be ruined by someone trying to make their own mark in the games, that ref should be banned. What country was the ref from?

I don't watch a lot of amateur boxing, but really?? was that a standard stoppage for the ams?
I take it this giant Chinese guy isn't turning pro.

Thought Savon nicked the opener.

Thought he certainly took the second too.

Savon has won both rounds, but the judges have it 14-12 to Joshua.

Home Olympics eh!?
Thought Savon won that by at least 2/3 points. Joshua looked stiff.

I wouldn't be happy if I was Cuban, a bit of a robbery. Hopefully Joshua will run with that luck, I wasn't impressed with the Chinese guy.

I thought Savon won that one. Joshua certainly landed scoring punches without looking as flashy but he can be thankful he's on home turf
