Boxing

Wow, men's light heavyweight 81kg Joshua Buatsi just knocked out the tournament number 3 seed russian boxer! One win away from a medal.
 
Surely the IOC and Seb Coe will review this and overrule? They should watch the footage like they do on rogue traders and re-assess the scoring punch by punch.

Then they should punch the judges and kick them out.

It would appear the dodgy judges from the two wrong decision fights have been sent home, and will take no further part in this contest.
The amateur authority said they will likely take Conlon to court if he can't produce evidence of corruption.
They stated some fights decisions did not come up to standard.

The results, althought not uo to standard, therefore wrong, will stand.

I don't get it. If the judges were sent home, which in itself is obviously an admittance of getting it wrong, why isn't the result overturned? Clearly sending them home means they got it wrong, ie, Conlon was the correct winner. They should still give Conlon a gold medal, even if they don't take it away from the winner (loser).
