Well I think the lumbering slow moving one's were outside of the ring not inside of the ring. Was reading up on the medal scandal last night which seemed have completely passed me by. The BBC in UK found evidence and secret witnesses that pointed to corruption (again) in boxing.

But overall the boxing in Baku was good and it pi**es me off when people try to buy medals and results in sport but it pi**es me off even more when some poor guy trains his ass off and then his -legitimate- victory is discredited by the tits that "trade" around athletes.

To be fair there are two sides to the srtory. Whenever I hear about corruption and bribes in boxing I always wonder what the refs and judges have to say about it. Not that anyone brings them up much. Only google search on the championships brought an eyeonsport video up that had a bit of what the judges had to say...
