Appeal seems to have been rejected

Thats intersting, wonder what the reasoning behind the rejection is.

Cuz u cant question decisions for UK fighters

Well i was thinking more along the lines of the offical reason why it was rejected, doesn't seem to be any quoted yet though. If at all there will be.

Khytrov's appeal attempt was quickly shot down and AIBA wouldnt listen to it because they had "no special grounds" for a complaint

What a complete and utter joke

I may be joking but what im saying isnt far from the truth. They wont even listen to an appeal

I was expecting the "official site is not official" argument but its even worse

It was "close" but there is no way Ogogo should have won on a decision. How does a fighter who gets out landed for the final 2 rounds and gets knocked down 2 times be seen a winner of a fight?

Not when a possible mistake it appealed, AIBA wont even listen to the appeal because its not "special" enough?

LAst 2 days 4 guys have been robbed and sent home and today is only half finished

I'd like to see Taledo and Lomachenko but looks like vasyl will still be too much

That second 8 count should not have been given.
