    I thought he clearly lost to that cuban in the olympic 1st round, but because Joshua was hometown boy he got gift decision to win the olympics?

    what if the day joshua was conceived his mum had a headache and he was not born.

    what if mr trump never went to scotland /trump would not now be president

    what if i pick the right numbers on the lottery next week but cant find the receipt

    what if geoff hursts 3rd goal was disallowed should we retrospectivley award the world cup to germany.

    He has the medal. A lot of people got medals that they didn't deserve, same way a few silver medalists should have gotten gold.

    Joshua got TWO very controversial decisions in London, but he still was promoted as an olympic champion and it will be that way during his entire career.

    You nailed it. He also won a razor close match. The home field and the judges smiled upon him.

    In 2016, they robbed Hrgovic, the best super heavy who clearly beat the gold winner Yoka.

    The Judging has tainted Olympic gold. Sad, but true.
