    We'll see what they do with the scoring, I heard they might keep 5 judges but switch to using accepted scoring.

    Words don't describe my rage. Those Chinese put on this nice face for the world of "oh, we love everyone, welcome!" and then in any event they could they ****ed everyone. China ****ing sucks. I hope their economy implodes and the Three Gorges collapses. :twisted: :twisted:

    Accepted scoring? What do you mean? :p
    Many people suggest the 10-point must system, but that won't work with only three rounds.

    Right! That's exactly what they do. Just pathetic.

    Accepted scoring is just using all the judges scores at the end of the match and going by whichever boxer has more judges having him winning. Kind of like what we use at the local level in the USA. So decisions would be either 5-0, 4-1, or 3-2.

    I swear, if I happen to fill out to 81kg by the time London comes around, I hope that Chinese ***** is there at 81. Words don't describe the punishment I want to put on him for the embarassment he and his country have inflicted on amateur boxing.

    Can't say I'm really impressed with how the opponents have handled him either. He forces his style on them and ruins their boxing. Of course he wouldn't have gone far without the help of the judges.

    Ahh, I see. They've only used it on one occasion in my fights.

    My main goal is to compete in the 81kg division in London, so one of us will maybe get the chance to annihilate him. For good.

    Norway. Boxing isn't big here. I'm in a group where the aim is to get to the 2012 olympics.

    How many fights do you have?

    Only five minutes until the last final is up.

    Italy's Roberto Cammarelle vs China's Zhilei Zhang.
