this is just an extract, not the full interview: “Sapevo di dover dare il doppio, il triplo in Azerbaigian, perché lottavo a casa loro e avevano comprato tutto. Lo stesso arbitro è stato con gli azeri per tutto il torneo. Io ce l’ho fatta, ma poi è successo qualcosa che ricorda il pugilato di tanti anni fa. Ritengo di aver subito un’ingiustizia enorme, ma non mi fermerò davanti a niente. E allora sì, lo voglio dire, sono venuti da me offrendomi dei soldi, 300.000 dollari per perdere. Non voglio dire chi, ma è successo la mattina del peso. Li ho mandati a f… perché non rappresento solo me stesso, ma anche l’Italia, la mia federazione, la Fijlkam, e l’Esercito. Non è facile rompere la mia integrità“, dichiara l’italo-cubano. “Sono ancora sconvolto. Triste, addolorato, pieno di vergogna per quello che è successo. I cinque giudici sul tappeto hanno preso la stessa decisione, riconoscendo che avevo messo a terra il ginocchio destro dell’avversario, quindi avevo vinto. Dopo un incontro in cui il mio avversario, che ho sempre battuto, per cinque minuti non ha fatto che scappare. Poi si sono inventati un challenge a tempo scaduto, che non si può fare. A questo punto il presidente di tappeto ha guardato le immagini di una sola telecamera della video review e ha stabilito che quella mossa non c’era, contraddicendo gli altri cinque giudici. Sono così schifato che non mi sembra di parlare di sport“, prosegue il lottatore azzurro. “I soldi muovono tutto. Mi esprimono solidarietà dagli Stati Uniti, dove combatto spesso, mi dicono che il responsabile dello scandalo sarà fermato: ma io che me ne faccio? Ho voluto denunciare tutto perché provo troppa rabbia, ma anche vergogna per il mio sport. In Turchia so di giocarmi ancora l’opportunità di tornare alle Olimpiadi, ma se dovessi rivivere certe scene e situazioni già viste a Baku giuro che stavolta faccio un macello. Se ho paura di pagare queste dichiarazioni all’ultimo torneo di qualificazione? Io vengo da Cuba, non ho paura di niente. Ora sono in un paese libero, posso dire quel che penso e quel che voglio. Non mi ferma nessuno“, conclude il bronzo olimpico di Rio 2016. hope that google translate doesn't do too much damage to the content

https://www.repubblica.it/sport/vari/2024/04/10/news/frank_chamizo_intervista_soldi_perdere_incontro-422454182/ unfortunately, it's only for subscribers (and I'm not) I guess that somewhere on the web (i.e. telegram or other sites with illegal stuff) sooner or later it will appear, but right now the only way is to pay for the newspaper's digital edition

according to the Italian Wrestling Federation's President, the infamous match involving Frank Chamizo has had some consequence already... the whole crew that was refereeing that bout has been excluded from the Olympics which basically it's a pure and simple confession that more than something went wrong on sunday afternoon in the meantime, in an interview to the major (?) Italian newspaper, la Repubblica, Chamizo himself said that he's been offered 300,000 US $ to intentionally lose that match of course, he refused but he said that in that exact moment he understood that he wasn't going to win in any case, as someone else would happily accept an amount like that to "adjust" the things just as the Azeri wanted

breaking news from Today in our major Pay-TV broadcaster (Sky Italia, which already carries the Eurosport 1 and 2 TV channels) and WB Discovery have reached an agreement and therefore the Paris 2024 Olympic Games will be covered on our Pay-Tv platform not only by the 2 traditional Eurosport Tv Channels, but also by 7 more HD TV channels and 1 4K TV channel released by Eurosport basically, it's the same coverage that many European broadcasters had in 2021, when instead, in we didn't have any opportunity to watch, since at that time Sky Italia refused to pay WB Discovery an extra fee and so no picture of the Olympic Games was shown on the Italian version of the Eurosport TV channels this time, instead, we're not gonna be the black sheep of the Continent of course, this doesn't change the remaining coverage: 360+ hours on 2 different TV channels FTA on our public broadcaster (RAI) and the usual Discovery+ APP for all the connected devices

men's -102kg Olympic Quota places: next in line:

men's -102kg Gold: Liu Huanhua* (total: 413kg) Silver: Garik Karapetyan (total: 401kg) Bronze: Yauheni Tsikhantsou (total: 400kg) * C&J World Record @ 232kg Full Results https://iwf.sport/results/results-by-events/?event_id=599 Group A Full Scoreboard

can't believe it! he has done it! new C&J WR by Liu Huanhua, 232kg

and it's gone! Liu lifteed 225kg and won the -102kg class with a total of 406kg now he's posted the C&J WR

now Liu has equalled Karapetyan's Total of 401kg, but he's behind him because he did it after the Armenian next, the Chinese guy has posted a massive 230kg, but I think he'll come down once he knows he doesn't need anything like that to win

it didn't go according to plan, unfortunately only 387kg for him Karapetyan just overtook Tsikhantsou (401kg for the Armenian) by the way, I've rarely seen a competition of this level with so many mistakes (and early withdraws)
