Gausha should have recieved the decision After watchin it on tv

Gausha won that easily! He was getting some good punches off in the third. And I feel like the first round score in the Ramirez fight was too wide of a margin, but oh we'll that's amateur judging for you.

He landed about ten more shots than Singh. I was pissed the first time. Pissed again after replay. How can those judges live with themselves, without integrity?

Hell, I don't know how they can do someone like Shimizu yesterday and not hang themselves in shame.

Gausha really impressed me with his interview after the fight. Terrell showed a lot of class and kept his dignity, although the interviewer gave him an open opportunity to express his displeasure. I wish him the best.

Don't be shocked if we see Gausha, Khytrov, and Ogogo all making a lot of money together 5-6 years from now.

From what I've seen of Terrell, at least, that would be just fine with me.

It's crazy how the ref for that fight was suspended but the judges weren't after only awarding the jap a 11-10 round in the 3rd I think. He destroyed the guy in the 3rd

The German ref in the Iran/Cuba Heavyweight fight who gave all those warnings and DQ'd the Iranian boxer also got suspended which i was happy to see. Not that it helps the Iranian who was winning the fight.

I know I saw, another disgraceful robbery

The romanion got robbed bad tdoday as well

[Dickie Smalls]

I have lost count of the robberies in this year's olympic boxing. Ocogo brothers from Britain didn't even deserve to win their last fights IMO.

I feel sorry for that Iranian dude that got robbed as well, dude has serious talent.

A few Africans been robbed hard too.

Puerto Rican flyweight didn't deserve his first win either.

List goes on...

Oh I know. It's like they just sat there pusing the same button no matter who landed. Yeah. He landed ten in the 3rd.

Not sure if anyone already posted this but apparently for the 2016 games they're going to a 10 pt. must system, removing headgear, and allowing professionals to compete in Olympic boxing.

Anybody watching the romaninan getting robbed against the UZB fighter?

Wow!!

That was shocking. The UZB was out on his feet in the middle of the 2nd round and the whole of the 3rd.

Also regarding Gausha. I was pissed he lost that fight. he won it with ease! He was catching the Indian with clean punches and pressing the action, yet wasn't awarded the win! I hope to see him go pro as he looks to have some skills and is pretty young at 24. I can see TMT promotions signing him up due to his young nature and his slick black style lol
