Olympic boxing is a JOKE!

I'm sorry, I just can't take it anymore... I watch this crap all the time and it frustrates me ALL the time! But last night really was enough for me to stop watching.

Light heavyweights... Greek fighter vs. Eqypt fighter. The Greek fighter was up 18-12 after the second round. At the end of the second round the Eqyptian fighter hit the Greek fighter with an elbow causing him to bleed. In between rounds, they looked at the cut to see if the fight would be stopped or not. They let the fight continue but after about 20 secs of the third round they stopped the fight due to the cut. At that time the Greek fighter was up 19-12.

Well, since the Greek guy was bleading and the doctor would not let it go on, the Greek fighter LOST!?!? What kind of crap is that? You get hit by an elbow, are winning by 7 and YOU lose the fight? I would just try to win by throwing elbows every fight.

Sounds like the Greek fighter got hosed. Olympic boxing is a load of camel dung!

Sounds like another case of Allah's will being done. Allah was obviously in the Egyptian's corner.
