    Did anyone see the China vs Tunisia fight today? Also the China vs Ukraine fight?

    Both showed serious bias towards the home fighter with the Tunisian eventually losing 3-1 and the Ukrainian winning 15-6.

    The Tunisian lad could and should have won this fight. In the Ukraine vs China fight the Ukrainian was getting 1 point for every 2 punches landed.

    Body shots seem to be ignored so far in the competition as well.

    Seriously dodgy judging in my opinion

    it's always been the way it's a boxing match unless it's a perfected straight right hand on to the solar plexus then it will be scored. it's the same around the world

    Body shots are barely ever scored in amateur boxing, I've seen guys double up their opponents with body shots and not have them scored.

    I can't stand olympic boxing ever since they remade the scoring system.
