I think they could let the Yeleussinov-Giyasov fight go on. All they need to do is make it to the second round and then stop it if necessary.
One of the earlier fights only went a minute into the second round before they stopped it due to a cut and went to a decision. The same could be done here.
I don't mind Giyasov, but it wouldn't look that great if he wins Gold. Especially how fans have been turning on him after being a huge fan favorite.
Yeleussinov deserves a chance for Gold. He is one of the best, if not the best boxer of these Olympics.

Originally posted by yngwie View PostI'm not saying he robbed anyone, but everytime he got in a close fight, he won, not many fighters are that lucky in the amateurs, Roniel Iglesias seems to lose all his close fights.
They tried to rob him against Conceicao.
Roniel is the most disrespected elite boxer under AIBA. The easiest on the eye and I think considering all aspects of boxing he is the best on the Cuban team if not in his division. Rabii, Roniel, Yeselinov, you can make a case for all of them but Roniel is just very easy on the eye and a strong puncher too.

Did the Russians really bribe the officials? I guess they'd be pretty desperate for medals.
Officials from Tishenko-Levit:
Michael Gallagher (Ireland)
Armando Carbonell Alavarado (Colombia)
Khiera Sidi Yakoub (Algeria)
