Home town scoring ruins the HW Olympics. Cuban wins by at least 8 pts yet loses.

    Savon won pretty comfortably, at times I thought he might even stop Joshua.

    feel bad for savon..disgraceful scoring..schooled joshua..if he goes pro after these games.im expecting a very very very very padded record in his first 30 fights.deontay wilder style..power and strength..kind of like a brit helenius..if he dosnt improve he isnt winning a thing as a pro

    You are dumber then a ******. Olympics have **** all to do with Pro Style.

    That's why there's a Pro Style and an Amateur Style

    Audrey Harrison DOMINATED with head gear: look at him lmfao

    Tyson didn't even MAKE THE OLYMPICS, he lost in QUALIFYING.


    Obviously Savon beat him, but to say 'school' is just hating.

    Also to judge Joshua's pro future base on a Olympic fight against a top 3 Amatur Cuban is stupid as well,

    put your money on Joshua for gold.

    Barring a stoppage, It's a LOCK.

    glad everyone else saw the same fight as me. no one is even trying to make a case for Joshua winning the fight. I like him but he got schooled.

    It was to be expected, did you see how much the brits have been hyping this guy since he "beat" Camarelle in the last World Championships? No way are they going to let him fail, as long as he's still standing at the end of the fights, he'll get the decisions. They want their star and they'll have it, one way or another :deal

    this sort of **** really pisses me off.

    Savon boxed the socks off Joshua, aside from a quieter third round, which he still finished strong.

    Also, goes to show how stupid the Olympic preliminary system is, one loss and you go back home.....

    that must feel **** for Savon, as being Cuban he practically lives for this tournament....probably had to leave his starving family, with literally no funding.....gets here, kicks ass, and gets robbed, and returns to his day job back in Cuba for another 4 years....

    on the other hand, if he would have won, he would have probably have had a phone call in September from Team Joshua, asking for an exhibition amateur fight in london.....which he obviously wouldnt be able to turn down *cough cough....

    **** the olympics. bull****

    That Iranian fighter today also had some bs warnings and eventual DQ against him. The judging so far has been incompetent at times and corrupt on other occasions!

    feel bad for the guy, he was better in every way. landed the cleaner punches, better ring generalship, better footwork, feints etc, this guy had it all.

    Felix Savon is still fighting?

    That would not be fair - he is like a 40 year old against teens.
