LOL just saw an interview on BBC One with Nicola Adams that had some mad racist overtones.

They brought her into a really posh tea room with this old white guy and he said to her "You can eat whatever you like now!"

Spoiler

yeah I'm reading too much into it, but it was funny as fuck

I don't know if you know that fighters of all types usually have to fast like hell to hit their target weight prior to a fight.

There was nothing to read into the comment.

 

[Kurtofan]

Wow, spain is a bunch of dirty fucks.

Puts the nutshot into a new context.

 

[friskykillface]

RIP Spain


4 fouls for Marc is the end

 

[Bo-Locks]

He didn't win the final round by 3 points. Hope Cammarelle appeals.

 

[Awesome]

Really? He seemed pretty convinced he won to me.

Was a very close fight though.

He did not win 8-5 in the third round, boxing should be removed before Rio because this is just as corrupt as the professional level.

I agree, the final round margin was much bigger than 3.

Ya, I didn't watch that game but if spain hit them like they are the US for no reason other than they're losing then I'm not as surprised someone finally retaliated on them. What is their problem?

 

[seattle6418]

So we repeated our shit Beijing performance + 1 Silver.

Hopefully some bizarre miracle happens between today and 2016 so that our "best" athletes stop sucking.



Yes, losing during a generational transition is normal. Getting wrecked for three sets in a row after two match points, on the other hand, isn't. Under any circumstances.

We shouldn't be rewarded for not investing, for not trying to produce athletes. Most brazilian don't even care about olympic sports, and when the olympics came around, they just expect us to win things.

They should continue to suck, because assholes like Nuzman and the whole government think that there's no lack of incentive or budget... right... as long as we do things this way, we will continue to suck in the olympics just like all other south american countries who do the same thing.

You're absolutely right.

And just like everything else that's wrong with this country, I don't see this changing anytime soon.

Oh well.

I know right he won by at least 4 clear points in that last round

 

[Ravensmash]

So Joshua was gifted two matches in this joke of a boxing tournament, those people should be ashamed. Joshua knew he didn't win the gold, look at his face.

A face full of joy and relief.

 

[donkey show]

Oh shit Stern. He's gonna make the call.

Marc Gasol gets so outraged at every foul. On that last one, he is literally holding love down with his left hand on Love's shoulder as he swats the ball with his right.

Did I just see someone on the USA bench showing two fingers at that Spanish guy in slo-mo?

Can somebody explain the basketball nonsense? BBC commentators are praising the US team for playing on despite something...?

Italy appealing against Joshua win...

 

[Brinbe]

Doubt it matters how you think it does, that gesture doesn't have any obscene meaning in NA.

And I expect the US to go on a run to put this away in the 2nd half, like they've done with every other close game they've had so far.

 

[Zaraki_Kenpachi]

Was that foul just given to a phantom player?

Edit: Now they gave it to williams.

 

[blanky]

this is going to get nasty this basketball final isnt it...

 

[ZZMitch]

I wish I could be that kid holding the mic thing in the background.

Do the Czechs not have anything else to wear to medal ceremonies? The guy that won gold in mountain biking was wearing the blue wellies from the parade of nations. lol
