Case in point first match.
China vs. Mongolia.
round 1: Barely any fighting maybe one or two exchanges. Mongolia fighter doesn't even really throw a punch.
round 2: Mongolia fighter coach throws in the towel.
You can see the disgust in the Mongolian fighters body english. Official statement says he had an "injured shoulder", BS, was ordered by ring doctors to go to the local hospital but refused. Not suspicious at all.
Match 2: China vs Ireland
How in the hell did the Chinese fighter win? Bribery or something close to it. None of the clear blows that the Irish fighter was landing were being credited while obvious misses were being credited to the Chinese fighter.
Match 3: China vs Italy
Well....I guess the only way to win is to clearly and decisively dominate the opponent so that the judges can't cheat.
I can't watch anymore of this. I would have loved it if China won fair and square, and some of their boxers did come out to fight but to be determined by politics is bs. If this keeps out I would agree that Amateur boxing should be ejected from the games. This is disgraceful. Those judges must be bribed or so intoxicated with beer that they can't score right. That's it, it must be the beer.
