        Hardly.

        We received the obvious benefit from a passionate crowd influencing judges. An Azerbaijani fighter pretty much got nailed to the floor and still came out victorious, lol.

            That's beautiful. The most respected boxer at the London games calls it like it is. *Applause*

              Exactly. There's nothing more to prove at the amateur level.

                lol if he thinks the amateur judges were bad, just wait until he encounters the corrupt pro judges.

                  Lmao... In all seriousness, though, I've always thought the amateur judges get it wrong more often than the pro judges! Whether it be because of corruption or incompetency. Just my opinion.

                    I would have agreed a couple of years ago but the judging past 18 months or so in pro boxing has been genuinely shocking, robbery after robbery, controversy after controversy.
