Olympic boxing is bullcrap! The scoring system is bullcrap and it seems the judges cant score a fight anyway. The Refs are also useless! In some cases they disqualify a fighter in the first round for holding and in another case they let some stupid Italian hold as much as he wants without even taking a point away.. And the english fighters always get gift decissions. I will not cintinue to watch the Olympic tournament because its just pissing me off.

I agree. They don't count body punches and a fighter doesn't get any points for a count.

Its basically fencing only boring. The scoring is wacked, the refs are all over the place. I hated during the Beijing games too, but I'd been watching alot more amatuer fights lately, some old, some new and figured 4 years would be enough for me to get excited about it again.... Nope... Watched the first rounds of a couple different weight classes, couldn't stay awake. Theres some good talent out there, and its the freakin' olympics lets take the gear off and scrap for a few rounds.
I don't even really mind the headgear, the scoring system is what ruins it for me.
Just can't win with boxing, leave it to judges to score, they'll screw it up. Put it on a point system, and all of a sudden its a whole new boring sport.Comment
