If LA 1984 Olympics were not boycotted, what would have been the results?

[Dragon 1,844]

I was thinking it might be a good idea sometime to predict the results for every year a full strength Olympics should have taken place but was cancelled or boycotted by some nations.

Although I realize that would take a lot of research to complete.

It would be fascinating to try this with 1916, 1940, and 1944 as well.

I think 4 of the Americans deserved golds in 1984 and 5 didn't.  being the country that lost out badly because of the home town judging.

I think the  and  fighters would have been so good that the judges could not possibly vote against them. (I hope)

don't forget what happened in Seoul (and not only there)...you can even basically KO your opponent, but he will always be declared the winner if the judges are corrupted.
