Olympic judges

I think the judging has been dodgy at times and no way did Joshua beat the Cuban last night that was a robbery . Why do they have to do it , as much as I wanted a fellow Brit to win its just embarrassing that they do this

Very True the Brit got picked apart that last round no way that was a 1 point round but just as i thought that Joseph Diaz fight was much closer than 21-15 so its not the only and most likely not the last brain fart well see.

AM boxing needs to go back to a 10 point system with 3 judges.

The computerised scoring system just doesn't work.

I hope Joshua gets Knocked out big time next fight. He doesnt deserve to be in quarter final. Robbery!

Well hopefully it is going 10 point scoring so at least this should soon be a thing of the past

It's not just the system, it's the integrity of the judging. We keep mentioning the 10 point system as if that is going to resolve the issue, but as we all certainly know, boxing reeks of corruption with or without the system. It's the judges that need to be carefully chosen.

Yeah that's a good point actually
