    Yes of course it has to be paid, but with that should come a level of qualified skill. That's what makes it a total mockery.

    What on God's earth is this?!!! Brazilian crowd booed the decision like crazy, and rightfully so.
    So CORRUPT. Levit IS the TRUE Gold Medalist. One of the very worst robberies we will EVER WITNESS in OUR ENTIRE LIVES.

    If I was Tischenko, I'd reject the Gold Medal. I wouldn't want to call myself a Gold Medalist if I got pummelled from pillar to post in the final and won via corruption.

    I HATE Tischenko as a boxer as it is, I know the fix isn't his fault, but damn this is a sour time.

    Good to hear they're STILL booing.

    How bad was the Levit-Tischenko decision?

    I'm stuck at work so I couldn't see any of the fights, but I'm hearing the hw finals was a travesty

    pretty bad robbery, fair play on the Russian for not celebrating.

    what was the chant before the anthem?

    It was disgusting. Levit was dominating Tischenko who looked in great danger. Levit won clearly 3-0.

    Completely agree. That was of the most corrupted decisions in boxing ever.

    Absolutely awful. Beyond laughable, especially to be a UD. One corrupt judge is to be expected, but all 3?

    To be fair, Levit's an ethnic Russian as well, but yeah it seems like the Azeris are getting the best treatment, followed by the Uzbeks and Russians. Kazakh's seem to be getting shafted a lot

    It was an atrociously bad decision there's no way anyone could watch it and score it any other way than a clear win for Levit.

    Honestly, I'm starting to lose interest in boxing.

    It just doesn't interest me that much anymore.
