Rio 2016: Olympic boxing tournament hit by corruption allegations

[smashup]

The judging has been very fair so maybe these stories of corruption have been a blessing in disguise so far.
Britain have lost 6 of 12 fighters already but theres been some really talented fighters so far in Rio.
Too many fighters fighting with their hands by their sides trying to be Naz for my liking but theres been some cracking tear ups already.

They guys that youd expect to be getting the fix have been fighting lesser opposition so far.Lets see what happens when the AZE or UZB fighter takes a Cuban on. Was a pretty poor card yesterday for Asanau v Habbachi

Hope our amateur team can defend themselves if they go out to party.
Judo winner got robbed and whooped the day he won. Eye on full swoll.

Olympic boxing: Joshua Buatsi makes quarter-finals by stopping Rasulov | Boxing News | Sky Sports

Joshua Buatsi looks the goods. Real pro style.

Wouldn't want a clump off him, two sparko jobs in a row. The geezer he fought in the second bout was clearly related to Wlad.

Phelps!
Phelps! .BTW did ya hear about Phelps?

Excerpt
if we consider today's modern Olympics to be an extension of the ancient games held in Greece, Phelps has now set an ancient record.

Leonidas won 12 titles in the second century B.C. A renowned runner, Leonidas won three events -- the stadion, a sprint; the diaulos, a longer run; the hoplitodromos, a run performed while wearing armor -- in four straight Olympiads. He is believed to have won more Olympic titles than anybody at the ancient Olympic games. .

Phelps passed Leonidas for most Olympic titles (medals or wreaths) with his win Thursday in the 200-meter individual medley.

Hopefully Leonidas enjoyed his 2,000 years on top.
If Phelps does the same. ..it will be around the year 4,100AD to beat an ancient swimming man named "Michael Phelps."

To be fair he was competing against Greeks so his opposition, considering nationality and human growth over time, was probably 4'6" unathletic guys covered in olive oil. I mean look at the Greeks, 3 medals total and 2 of them are in shooting, that takes no athleticism. Got two eyes and nothing worthwhile to do, you can be an Olympian.

Shocking decision in the 91kg final tonight. Tishchenko got battered and somehow took it on all cards. Filthy fix without doubt.

Did you know. Phelps chooses Frosted Flakes over Wheaties?

Recent corruption involves the Brazilin beach volleyball team wearing full bodysuits? Lets just be honest here ffs . That's like Santa Claus just handing you new socks.

Buatsi impressive win again scoring two standing eight counts to medal. Considering his style he's gonna be offered some tasty incentives to sign with the top promoters
