She was robbed.
This is why some people want boxing removed the Olympics
The sport is eating itself alive with corruption
Ah boxing, don’t ever change
Can camera technology and AI & other technologies be rigged up around the ring to count accurately landed punches in olympic boxing? Perhaps if the white tips of the gloves is brought back?
Of course it would prioritise accuracy over power, control etc and other aspects of boxing that matter, especially in professional boxing. But could it take the human aspect out of things and ensure integrity in the sport?
No way did she lose that fight.
I mean lets point fingers here. 2 judges who were removed were both from Kazakhstan, one of which was involved in the Dainas fight. Then the other judges involved were from Azerbaijan and Russia? Both of which had to stand down in 2021 for being high risk. I mean come on….
Why does boxing have so much corruption and links to organised crime? Not just here or now but internationally and historically?
