3. Fixed Boxing Match
Everyone that saw the final fight in light middleweight category, in Seoul, 1988 is still dumbstruck by the result. Roy Jones, Jr. had simply destroyed his opponent Park Si-Hun, but judges ruled in South Korean boxer’s favor with three votes over two. Even 86 punches by Jones weren’t enough to win against the host country’s representative who only managed to land 32 punches. Things are much clearer today as three judges ruling in Si-Hun’s favor had been suspended for taking bribe by South Korean officials. However, IOC still stands by this decision and Si-Hun is still a champion, although he has apologized to his opponent for something which evidently wasn’t his fault.
