Boxing at Paris 2024 (Les Jeux de la XXXIII Olympiade)

Nice fight. Orie's defensive reflexes and consistent location with the jab made the difference.

 

Yeah..... I don't know about that one.

 

Split decision...

WAIT WHAT!!!! THEY GAVE IT TO CHALOYAN?!?!?!?!?!

You could score that either 30-27 or 29-28 for Orie. Wtf was that decision

 

Thats the price you pay when your first name is delicious

 

I suspect my post may be removed, but, where is everyone watching olympic boxing? I go on BBC iplayer (uk) and all I'm getting is swimming

 

That decision was shockingly bad, it's going to cast a pall over this finale damn it.

 

Kamshybek Kunkabayev (KAZ) vs. Ayoub Ghadfa (ESP), Men's 92+kg

 

Who's the Armenian matched up with in the next round?

 

Cagey opener.

Kunkabayev gets the first round on three of the five judges' cards.

 

Let me check the bracket...

Winner of Moindze vs. Congo

 

Yeah, Orie won for sure in my book

 

In anyone's book, I should think, save those batty judges'.

Chaloyan did alright but he was the clear loser there.

 

Damn. Weaker bracket too. Orie definitely robbed of a solid chance of medalling.

 

No wonder I'm not into amateur boxing. It's like the Eurovision song contest. Everyone votes against the Brits.

 

Maybe another upset incoming! After two rounds, two judges have it for Ghadfa, two have a draw and one for Kunkabayev.
