Olympic Boxing Coverage on Saddo's???

The scoring is horrible here so many punches from everyone are not counted, phantom points come in every now and then.

Weight: Lightweight (60 Kg)
Blue: Qing Hu of China
Red: Oleksandr Klyudhko of Ukraine
Round 1: Audience cheering like crazy, more intense than a Hatton fight. Lot of bouncing not many punches, clinch looks like they are shadow boxing in front of each other and another clinch. Blue likes to put the forearm in reds face during clinchs, dull round a few tapping punches landed from both guys nothing counted.
Blue: 0 Red: 0
Round 2: Red trying to jab his way in no success but he slips and gets out, another clinch. short right hook for red lands blue lands right to the body it counts and the crowd erupts in cheers. left to the head lands for Blue. Red lands great right hook, blue comes back with a straight left and lands with two left hooks.
Blue: 5 Red: 2
Round 3: wild swinging from both blue slips and falls more wild swinging from both blue slips and falls again. blue scores with a hook and another slip and fall for blue this time with a little help from red. Red landing some beatiful straight lefts and an over hand left nothing scored. Blue clinches. Red charging in blue tries to tie up and he falls again. Red lands four punches that move blues head and only one is counted
Blue: 3 Red: 2
Round 4: Red on the attack nice left from red scores. Red is doing good work on the inside, but not getting any credit, nice weave from blue red chasing blue running nice left by red follosed by nice right for blue only blue counted blue doing clinch to farearm move again. Red lands a nice left blue clinches and blue gets a point.
Blue: 2 Red: 4

Results: Blue: 10 Red: 8

Klyudhko got robbed in my opinion much more effective many flurries landed and nothing counted.

Killersheep I got to agree with ya on that last fight being a robbery, I was surprised how disproportionate the scoring seemed, the chinese dude would land one somewhat clean shot and get a point and the ukrainian would land 2 clean shots in a row and not get a point at all...but homecooking comes into play everywhere I guess.

It's just crazy to me.

yeah your right even if it was homecookin it would only explain that particular fight. Ah I don't know I just like to watch it and its agrevating to see a boxer dominate another and then have it snatched away from him due to some insane scoring, maybe they're doing it so as to prepare them for the pro game, ha.

I thought the Ukraine kid was robbed against the Chinese too.

It doesn't really matter that there weren't any Chinese judges. Foreign judges can be influenced to score for the housefighter without any corruption going on - being in the home country, crowd support etc.. we see this in pro boxing all the time.

I heard on the news that one of our Batamweights was robbed in the prelims (against a chinesse opponent). I thought it was just sour grapes but i guess it been happening a fair bit?!

Not good.

Very true and the crowd was really into it, he coulda been adjusting his mouthguard and got cheers.
