AIBA executive director Tom Virgets mentioned earlier about the 2006 election in Santo Domingo which finished at 6am the day after it had started. 

Those elections were possibly the most violent and controversial any Olympic International Federation has held. 

A delegate from Mali was found dead in a hotel elevator shaft during the Congress.

I've heard they really needed to drop a little bomb in there but then found out some asshole left the paper roll empty and didn't replace it. 

 

Nah - India is one of the ones missing. We use water, not toilet paper to do our business :raspberry:

They will because the assumption is that the suspension will be temporarily. AIBA can take a hardline approach and at the very least would cause the Olympic tournament to be very diluted.

 

I'd agree with you but not when the Olympics is involved. If the alternate body wud have been in charge of holding, say, a world championship, federations might have still been strong-armed and stayed loyal to AIBA. But with Olympic participation on the line, they'll show AIBA the finger...
