8:35pm ET: "Hmm, they're still talking about WW2. I guess it does merit some air time, but it'd be nice to get to some of today's Olympic results."

So what are they doing about it?
Edit:
OK good, they reversed the result. Apparently another referee did this kind of stuff too against an Iranian heavyweight. Both referees have been removed.
After a certain number of ass whippings given by the Americans, I almost feel a little sorry for the people from other countries who will be sent to The Hunger Games for losing to Americans. [Reply]

I watched a total of two boxing fights during the Olympics and they both ended with winners by decision that didn't come anywhere close to deserving it at all. That was enough for me. [Reply]
