    You already know it's a stupid argument, stop acting like you can dig yourself out of this hole with ad hominem attacks.

    I understood what you wrote, it was just total horse**** and you very well know that judging by your terrible trolly responses.
    Never said you're like me either, I wouldn't want to be anything like you. You're a nasty **** stain on the underpants of society, I'd rather people like you were washed out rather than allowed to fester and stink up the whole place.

    I`m not sure you`re completely right, but Usyk was a far better amatuer than AJ was and was far more convincing winning gold and looked better at heavyweight than AJ did in amatuers when he beat Usyk, I feel Usyk would have beaten AJ at heavyweight in the amatuers, AJ was a lot lighter back then and easier to hit.

    Or maybe Aj was fighting on home soil and kept getting the benefit of the doubt?

    For the record I watched his fights and I definitely disagree with the judges, similar to how I disagree when I look back roy jones I'm 88

    Is he an Olympic champion? Yes in the same way that canelo drew with GGG first time

    Should he have won gold? No

    yet, you cant get me off your mind. let me ask you, if you feel that way, and you know that i think youre some emotional dweeb who doesnt know half what he thinks he knows, then why even quote anything i say? im not interested in what you got to say, supposedly you dont care what i got to say...so move on. if an aggressive fat girl gave you ptsd, ill make you suicidal.

    my point is that where they are today is more indicative of their talent, than where they were back then. so acting like hes not good enough to have won gold is asinine. did he deserve the win back then? dont know, but even if he didnt, he sure showed he should have won since then.

    I'm just answering the question on the thread and he shouldn't have won gold. That doesn't really have any bearing on where he is today and I think he has proved he is either the top guy or number 2 in his division

    I guess he should call himself olympic champion, as he did get awarded the gold medal, but he did not deserve it. The judging was ridiculous and reminiscent of Byrd or Cj ross scoring a canelo fight

    Robbery isn't very convincing nor does his gold metal hold nearly as much weight as it would if he convincingly won it. Based on your posts you don't understand the concept of gift decisions. Charlo vs Castano, Canelo vs GGG 1. Etc. But that being said Joshua is the number 1 or 2 gug in the division. He's gotten much better

    Technically it is indeed true that AJ is an Olympic gold medalist. However, the only reason he even medalled at all in those Olympics is because of corruption rearing its ugly head again and the games being staged in his home country that year. He clearly lost his opening bout against Savon which is something which virtually everyone who saw it agrees with and thus he should not have progressed past that stage. Some 'fans' worship at the altar of corruption and are willing to turn a convenient blind eye to it just as long as their guy gets the W but every single fan on the planet knows the the sport of boxing has been rife with corruption robberies since its inception and it's still absolutely rife with it today.

    All his bouts in those games were razor close sans Zhang and that was hardly wide on the cards. That's not a knock on him because they're all good fighters but if not for corruption and home advantage, which, duh! is a thing. A big thing, there's no way in hell he would've come away with a medal because he wouldn't have progressed to the second stage because Savon was robbed blind.

    Defeated.Erislandy Savón (Cuba) 17-16
    Defeated Zhang Zhilei (China) 15:11
    Defeated Ivan Dychko (Kazakhstan) 13-11
    Defeated Roberto Cammarelle (Italy) +18-18

    Tishchenko is an Olympic gold medalist too
