Or do you geta bit extra for a count because it seems odd that a fast accurate jab is scored the same as a well placed big right that makes you wobble and get a count
Yep it scores the same, 1 point

And hurt him numerous times. He should have won that fight
Another piss poor decision.

Just read on Twitter the Ukrainians have lodged an appeal.

said they would, be interesting after the Japanese fighter won his appeal, with the Ukranian being a world champion, it could carry more weight, but it is against the home fighter so who knows what could happen ?

It may be a print error but on the Olympic official website the count back scores add up to 53-52 to the Ukrainian.

Boxing is boxing it seems it doesn't matter what level you are fight at. Just too much money in boxing is causing these terrible decision. If Anthothy makes it to the finals the monetary rewards are imense.

I don't think you can compare the two situations.
The Japanese fighter was reinstated because two knockdowns were not scored.
In Agogo's case I'm told all of the Judge's cards compare very well in terms of which shots were scored for both fighters.
The only dispute potentially is on the count back and if Buncey says he won, he won ! 8)
I'll be surprised if he gets back in.
Now whether we all agree with the Judges score cards is another matter .... but if the cards are all consistant an appeal is going nowhere.

I posted this on the amateur forum, but I scored the Ogogo fight, and had it 20-15 for Khytrov (5-5, 9-6, 6-4). I had the same total for Ogogo as the judges in the first two rounds, but had Khytrov getting underscored in both rounds. I thought both fighters were overscored in the third - more punches were thrown, but most of it looked to me like it was hitting gloves or missing.

Thats pretty much how I saw it scoring wise. I kept thinking that he'd only need to keep it close to win, and the first round he managed it. Second round scoring told me Agogo would win the fight unless he was stopped. I'm not going mad about it, good luck to him, bet he's been on the wrong end of a decision before and it happens in every Olympics. I just have two thoughts on the matter, 1) I hope it doesn't become any more blatant as the tournament wears on, and 2) Massive respect again to Audley and De Gale
