phelps 7,213 Posted October 13, 2019 #42 Share Posted October 13, 2019 not to mention that Russia obviously won quite easily the final Medal Table with 3 Gold Medals (and more side dish)... they were followed by 7 different Nations with "only" 1 Gold Medal each, among which China (3 Silver medals and 1 Bronze) and Turkey (2 Silver medals) were the most successful in terms of "minor" medal placings...

phelps 7,213 Posted October 13, 2019 #43 Share Posted October 13, 2019 (edited) and finally comes the big surprise! Price's appeal has been accepted and the final outcome in the -75kg class has been overturned!!! so, in the end, Gold Medal for Wales...and Fontijn (and the whole Dutch delegation) refused to take part into the victory ceremony!!! sanctions incoming for the Netherlands and Fontijn, I fear...

CCB 489 Posted October 13, 2019 #44 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Boxing is terribly ill ... what the fuck Fontijn lost her gold medal during the medal ceremony. Looks like Wales offered a lot of money to one of the judges. And indeed, sanctions incoming for Fontijn. Maybe she will be excluded from the Olympic Games. Career end.

dcro 10,192 Posted October 13, 2019 #45 Share Posted October 13, 2019 How on earth can a decision on boxing match be overturned? That's some blatant bullshit. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not think you need to worry about that as AIBA is not involved with the qualifiers strength does not come from physical capacity but from an indomitable will. - Gandhi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In boxing you can't trust anybody ... even when you're 30 seconds from receiving a gold medal, you can become sewn.

AIBA can at best say that she cannot participate in further AIBA world championships but will not have any voice in the olympic qualifiers ........ which why Netherlands probably felt they could afford to do this Edited October 13, 2019 by nitinsanker Dunadan 1 strength does not come from physical capacity but from an indomitable will. - Gandhi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fontijn dominated the bout from start to finish, Price was only launching herself against the Dutch girls and hold for the entire match and she landed only 1 clean shot in the whole fight (in the last 15 seconds of the 3rd round) and already the judges came out with a close 3-2 score for Fontijn... and still they found the way to overturn that already crazy enough result in an absolute scandal...

My logic is that AIBA is suspended....... Primarily because there was 1. rampant match fixing 2. Financial irregularities.... If there is a athelete protesting match fixing I think it only strengthen s IOC hand...... So i believe that they will not take any suspension into account...... I also believe the fact that the entire Dutch team stayed away is because they knew this..... They never work in such a concerted manner unless they were sure the team would not get suspended from olympics because of this strength does not come from physical capacity but from an indomitable will. - Gandhi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
