    I said it is a meaningless movement and I consider it stupid. Get over it.

    It was his medal and he gave it away. End of story.

    I don't care what you said. You just need to get over it.

    Anyone with even the slightest amount of boxing nous knows Jones beat Park and that's why Park has given Jones the medal.

    Park feels he is righting a wrong and anyone with more than half a brain can see that and appreciate the gesture.

    Jones received the award for boxer of that Olympic tournament. Again, anyone with any boxing nous knows Jones received that as a consolation for being blatantly robbed against Park.

    Great news and a classy gesture. Arguably the biggest robbery in boxing history has been rectified. Salute!

    I remember it. I saw it live on TV , Roys gold medal bout. I think the backstory was that the judges were out to dinner with his opponent the night before. Dont know if that hat was true or not. 36 year wait for Justice, so happy for Roy. You can see how respectful and jazzed he is about it. Good for him

    The right thing to do is the Olympic committee overturning this. Two judges from the fight was banned for life. Proven corruption and they still did nothing.

    Park gesture is nice but record still shows Park and him giving medal to Jones is so late, 30 years late.

    The biggest robbery in boxing history??? lmaoooo

    Close fights aren't robberies when are people going to realize this. It's not even close to the biggest robbery even in the Olympics history.
    Tischenko vs Levit in the Olympic final in 2016 was a far bigger robbery go watch that! Joshua vs Savon in 2012 was a far bigger robbery.
    GGG vs Alvarez 1 was a far bigger robbery, Katie Taylor vs Persoon 1 was a far bigger robbery.

    The fight wasn’t a robbery accept it and move on. I'm tired of people calling close fights robberies . Real robberies happen in boxing this wasn't one of them, I'll tell you why because they want to pick and choose which fights to call robberies based on if they like the fighter or not.! If your favorite fighter loses a close fight then it's automatically a robbery lol

    Close fights are not robberies, you need to accept the judges decision and move on!

    Learn the difference between a robbery and a close fight goofy!

    its not the biggest robbery ever dummy lmao. you dont even watch amateur boxing

    learn boxing goofy! It was a very close fight that could've gone either way

    In a close fight the guy you like doesn't get the nod it's an automatic robbery? No it was a close fight nothing more!

    The Korean guy is broke and got offered a **** load of money to go to the states and hand over his medal, it was a no brainer for the broke Korean lmao

    Jones is a bitter china chinned diva who feasted on bums for 85% of his career, he was a bum as an amateur.

    There''s close fights at every olympics that couldve gone either way every day at the olympics boxing and no one cries about it more than jones and his goofy fans like you stupid banned alt troll dummy. you don't know **** ******

    You're a coping alt who's too much of a pussie to even post your opinions on your normal account. That says alot about you as a man you're a coward.
    I don't care about your opinion it's irrelevant the fight is widely regarded as a robbery and nothing about the fight was close. Cope harder coward.
