I can't help but remorse thinking about Beijing and London, when all one could see was increasing number of our boxers entering late knock-out stages. Specially London. Since we had so so close bouts for most of our boxers, the immediate feel was of getting revenge by improving to one step more in next games. And look at where we are!! It makes me really sad. And yes. Thanks. I was in awe of the level of analysis you'd been putting here, so had to join Nah I agree...dont think it is a case of just bad judging. Since London, undoubtedly, boxing has had the biggest decline. Bad judging may happen against Kaz and Aze and hosts and few top boxers, but unlikely to be the reason we are losing to unknown Spanish boxers and barely scraping by Puerto Rican and Guatemalan boxers...

And after all the scandals and a lot of unfair results I should say Boxing no longer deserves to be in the Olympics. It should be removed in next cycle. Stay away from Olympics for one Olympic Games atleast, clean your shit, assure IOC of your cleanliness and come back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nitinsanker 187 Posted June 17, 2016 #2125 Share Posted June 17, 2016 (edited) I think personally we seem to mixing up two things Indian Boxing - We have messed up big time as IABF - This is the news of Dec 2012 after which IABF was suspended The IABF amended its constitution ahead of its September election to create the chairman's post to accommodate Abhay Singh Chautala at the end of his 12-year reign as the federation president. That paved the way for his unopposed election as president of the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) on Wednesday, a day after the IOC banned the body for allowing government interference in its poll. Even though the AIBA suspension is a direct fallout of the Olympic ban, the Indian boxing federation's September election is now under investigation. "This provisional suspension is also due to the fact that AIBA had learned about possible manipulation of the recent IABF's election," the governing body of amateur boxing said in a statement. the sports ministry - News in 2012 Compounding the pressure, India's sports ministry also announced on Friday that it had suspended the IABF, effectively cutting off the sport's government funding. - there was no proper funding for the boxers This is vijender s comment after that in dec 2012 "The next AIBA event is quite far away but hopefully we would not sit on it for too long and get the suspension revoked as soon as possible." But our federation sat on it till last month .............................4 years ..this is the news item of 2016 four years later Hope for Indian boxing, elections to set up new body on May 8 what kind of international success do we expect when there is no association no govt funding etc.............. ( whether the scoring patterns are accurate etc is a different matter ............... ans of course they should changed) ...our boxers are doing badly not because of the scoring patterns or conspiracy theory but because we have had no assoc or funding ..... some boxers like shiva, vikas, sumit and manoj are funded by OGQ...so will do well but others are in bad state ......we will have a maximum of 2-3 quota places in boxing ...........

I am sure he can try to cross 340 in the olympics which if he does means he can come in the top 10 which for mens weightlifting would be a great result ....................any news on how vikas thakur did in the 85 I felt he was doing very well too Edited June 17, 2016 by nitinsanker strength does not come from physical capacity but from an indomitable will. - Gandhi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
