    Another black eye for boxing

    Newsnight's Anna Adams asks Ivan Khodabakhsh, Chief Operating Officer of the International Amateur Boxing Association's World Series Boxing, if he offered Azerbaijan two boxing gold medals at the London 2012 Olympics in return for secret payments of $10m (£6.47m).

        This dude needs to get some ethics, taking a bribe is one thing. But trying to rat out your payer? Thats just wrong.

        He better pray Azerbaijan wins 2 gold medals, if not then he better be paying all that cash back.

        Corruption in Amateur sports? NO WAY, SHOCKING NEWS.

        NCAA + FIFA + Olympic Boxing/Olympic Games are the most corrupt companies on earth, ANYTHING is for sale.

        Have a Civil War in Your Country? Millions Dying? For a low price of only $300m of oil you can now have your own personal Olympic games or Fifa World Cup.
