Who got DQed in the boxing in first round?

And which match was that where spectators booed?

Satoshi Shimizu - Azeri Magomed
sounded more like a riot.

 

[HoodWinked]

lol bad call. but i'll take it.

 

[FlashbladeGAF]

lol bad call. but i'll take it.

what happened

i turned away for a second

 

[Canis lupus]

These girls : Marketa Slukova and Kristyna Kolocova (the girl with the freckles).

Damn they fine. Is beach volleyball still going now? Its too late I think.

 

[Brazil]

Bwahaha, the little dance. Awesome.

 

[nny]

(Volleyball)

I don't know if the defeat to the US messed up their confidence, but Brazil is disappointing me; are they gonna lose this in straight sets?

 

[Kikujiro]

This seems really complicated. Why is this necessary and/or how does it benefit the game?

More tactics, more variety, sounds complicated, but it's pretty simple. Just think of them as specialized defenders who can't attack.

My god what a save by the Koreans.

 

[Wax Free Vanilla]

Joshua has lost this fight

The girls were already messed up against Turkey.

 

[SquiddyCracker]

KOREA

Go Korea!

Nah it's still on I think. Volleyball goes on close to midnight in London.

 

[Salvadora]

Beach Volleyball is so awesome.

It's incredible. I don't want the Olympics to end so I can keep watching.

AUT vs. USA on now, 1st set.

 

[davidsaurus]

Just found it, it was
Satoshi Shimizu vs Azeri Magomed

Thanks. Just watched it, what a disgrace. Wow, these boxing referees are piss poor.

 

[Brazil]

It's incredible. I don't want the Olympics to end so I can keep watching.

Well, there are world league Beach Volleyball tournaments around all continents literally every month of the year. And the crowd is always awesome.

 

[Paches]

Oh dear, May and Walsh may lose their first ever set in the Olympics...

 

[Meadows]

no way Joshua won that

wtf were the judges thinking

Cuban should have won, he got fucking owned in the 2/3 round

 

[theignoramus]

Haven't watched an olympic boxing match since Roy Jones, never will..

I just youtubed that. Holy fuck. Even worse is that Olympic boxing is still a shithole.

 

[dc89]

It's incredible. I don't want the Olympics to end so I can keep watching.

I'm gonna have to try and follow the sport somehow. The major competitions I guess, I'll do some research.

 

[3Sixty]

Close fight.

Cuban would have won professional rules.

 

[HoodWinked]

what happened

i turned away for a second

both went up to spike it, the ball went sideways so ref thought brazil touched the net but neither did.

 

[Kurita]

Definitely want to watch more volleyball after the Olympics.

 

[THRILLH0]

Probably is perfectly understandable, but I just don't really give a shit. It's the first time in about four days I've checked the medal table just to see what's going on, and I saw that a large majority came in swimming. I found it humorous.

Huh? In what way is that humorous?

 

[Salvadora]

Well, there are world league Beach Volleyball tournaments around all continents literally every month of the year. And the crowd is always awesome.

Yeah I researched that, Will definitely try to keep watching although 3am starts might be a challenge.

It's on channel 4 over here.

 

[Soyongdori]

LOL brazil fans being assholes. Don't boo at Korea just because your team is sucking.

 

[Kikujiro]

LOL brazil fans being assholes. Don't boo at Korea just because your team is sucking.

Why? It's part of the game booing the opponent, nothing strange.

 

[HoodWinked]

LOL brazil fans, fuck you. Don't boo at Korea just because your team are sucking.

unfortunately happens alot to koreans, happened during a japan vs korea judo match, even happened at evo for KOF match where the crowd was literally chanting fuck you in spanish.

at this point its better to just feed off it.

 

[Kurita]

The coach is pissed.

 

[pappe]

no way Joshua won that

Boxing has fucked up rules and on top of that they stopped showing scores during the fight, making it tough to follow and more chances of favouritism.

 

[Wafflecakes]

LOL brazil fans being assholes. Don't boo at Korea just because your team is sucking.

Ah with countries like Brazil they only really excel in a very small subset of sports (for now) so they are far more invested in them. I understand that. Plus lol.....football culture and booing.

 

[Cyport]

Just a pic from today. Super awesome. A lot of tickets just went on sale an hour ago. Been trying but keeps timing out or being put in queues of well over 15mins.

 

[ZedIndyLil]

Wow, Walsh/Treanor might lose this set. Wouldn't it be their first in 10 gazillion years or something?

 

[Brazil]

I don't know if you're trying to suggest something here, but this has nothing to do with Korea. The fans would boo literally any opponent in that situation.

 

[Paches]

Wow, Walsh/Treanor might lose this set. Wouldn't it be their first in 10 gazillion years or something?

First ever in Olympic history.

 

[Wafflecakes]

Wow, Walsh/Treanor might lose this set. Wouldn't it be their first in 10 gazillion years or something?

Eh they are not the players they used to be. I really don't think they are the favorites in this tourney. Definitely contenders though.

Actually, it was japan who got booed against korea during judo match because it was a highway robbery what happened on first day of judo match.

I've been trying all day... tried to get tickets for probably 50+ different sessions and not a single sausage.

Dunno how the fuck they could make a website so shite. Shouldn't it check availability BEFORE letting people request tickets?

 

[Kurita]

I think that number 10 is South Korea's weapon of mass destruction.

 

[nny]

That point was for Brazil!

 

[ezrarh]

I think that number 10 is South Korea's weapon of mass destruction.

Obviously why North Korea hasn't invaded yet.

 

[Brazil]

That point was for Brazil!

Absolutely. Referee not helping the poor, haha.

 

[Dan]

The libero was a position created to mix things up because the matches were becoming too boring. A couple of other rules were changed as well.

More tactics, more variety, sounds complicated, but it's pretty simple. Just think of them as specialized defenders who can't attack.

My god what a save by the Koreans.

Interesting. Thanks.

 

[HoodWinked]

sucks thats two bad calls against brazil. they would be ahead this set.

 

[pappe]

The best thing about Brazil at the Olympics their supporters/followers are effing hot!

 

[ag-my001]

And uniform professionalism wins out for Austria!!

Yeah it's purely luck but you get more chance if you try all day. The timer thing is really annoying it goes from 10 to 13 to 15 to 5 to 9 mins left. I've never had a flawless ticket purchase experience for a major event though!

 

[Soyongdori]

Referee being retarded. Once again.

 

[FlashbladeGAF]

Judo then fencing... Korea mad

Brought out the "weapon of mass destruction" #10

EDIT: I know KOR took home some Fencing golds

 

[Konosuke]

This ref.

 

[LuCkymoON]

Definitely want to watch more volleyball after the Olympics.

I don't understand why it's not on TV >_<
There always a ton of people playing Volleyball at my rec center every night.
