Cuban by a disgraceful DQ after the Iranian got warned three times for persistent holding when both fighters were doing it.

 

That was bad , really bad , the Larduet was getting owned IMO , that ref probably had money on the Cuban and couldn't let him lose . Larduet won't go far in this tournament , he looks weak and disorganized . Peace .

 

Between the referee in the Cuban fight and the referee and judges in the Japanese dude's fight, this session has been a disaster.

 

Ref was Frank Scharmach (Ger)

 

Ain't his fault , he looked embarrased with the desision as well , even the Cuban coaches apologized to the Iranian . Bad ref , he should be suspended and investigated . Peace .

 

Just saw the results but didn't watch the fight. Japanese got robbed?

 

Indeed it was.

He will have a big career in his home country

 

Hey, a Geraman. I may actually be able to watch this on TV!

 

That Belarusian is relentless. Nice combinations and pro style.

 

Ivan Dychko vs Erik Pfeifer

 

Dychko is my dark horse for a medal...

 

ropes keep pfeifer up after getting hurt from a good right. Dychko wins round 1 pretty easy.

 

Pfeiffer is not bad. Dychko looking impressive!

 

Dychko has adopted Wlad's style a bit

 

Kinda. He did crap first two rounds, looked awful, then his opponent gassed bad in the 3rd and just kept going down out of exhaustion. Only got 1 warning when could have been dq'd, and the japanese lad scored enough punches in the 3rd alone imo to win the fight so I thought he was robbed, was a close pts decision but the other lad should have been stopped or dq'd.
