    In my opinion, Iglesias lost a close fight and Rabii fought an awful plan, was clearly fouled too.

    I'm the same way, I have no one on ignore, I read every negative thing said about me, which is usually a lot, but whereas a lot of people get destroyed by stuff like that, my skin has been getting thicker and thicker. That being said... some comments I have to respond to.:toney

    The only reason I watched this fight is because of Conlans whining. After I saw the fight and I did see Conlan win, his whining was justified. Something is going on. I might crack on Povetkins head, but I don't have anything against the Russians. They don't affect my life. I saw 2 decisions where Russian fighters won and they clearly lost. There are other robberies as well not involving Russian fighters. In my heart there is no anti Russian anything. I watch and score fights that's it and Conlan won.

    None of AIBA's 5* officials, the so called 'magnificent 7' were involved in any of today's fights.

    Notoriously bad/corrupt guys like Vuong, Kiridena, Carrillo, Alvarado & Rosario are all still in the tournament so who have AIBA suspended?

    Nikitin has withdrawn from the semi final due to injuries sustained in the conlan bout. Stevenson gets a walk over to the final

    He saved himself from a boxing lesson by Stevenson.

    People arguing that Nikitin was even close to winning either of his two fights in these Olympics are living proof of the view that there is no opinion so insane that you can't find someone on an internet forum to argue it. Transformers 2 was a good movie. Invading Russia in the Winter is a good idea. Scientology makes a lot of sense. Lance Armstrong never doped.

    Anyway, in related Nikitin news, there are reports that Stevenson will get a walkover. Apparently the Russian coaches have said that Nikitin is too battered from his "victory" to fight tomorrow.

    They said a lot of judges and referees were suspended. It's on the NBC app.

    Stevenson owes Conlan a shout out for putting in work on him.
