I'd describe it as everything seems quite wrong. It's atrocious...and they are bleeding Olympic boxing to death.

well i just saw one match. and the guys were landing clear blows and these judges can only have one second to put the point into the computer.

i also saw a guy from france whose cornermen were ejected from the crowd and was winning big then the decision is overturned.

i could give a damn about how boring it is. but this wreeks worst than don king.
