He's a Korean boxing coach now and walks around telling everyone he beat Roy Jones.

Is it true that a subsequent investigation showed bribery was involved? And is it also true that the amateur scoring system was totally changed because of the robbery?

Fascinating stuff. I wonder if the IOC has actually acknowledged the cheating or kept it firmly under the carpet...

I wonder if anything will emerge about the Egyption boxers at Athens. Something was definately going on there, everyone knew it as well, the crowd always booed them after a couple of their dodgy decisions.

Did that Austrailian Boxer who had been to prison for murder go to Athens in the end?

It was a heavyweight from New Zeeland. I think he was outclassed in his first fight
