Indian Boxer Vikas Krishan was knocked out of the London Olympics after he lost a controversial bout to his American rival Spencer in the Pre Quarter Finals of the 69 kg category.
After the match had ended, Vikas Krishan was declared the winner 13-11. At that stage, he had secured his place in the Quarters.
But the American Spencer challenged that decision and appealed against it. After nearly 2 hours, AIBA awarded 4 points to Spencer and he was declared the winner 15-13.
It was a real shocker because the same thing had happened to Sumit Sangwan 3 days ago. Sumit had won his bout comfortably but was shockingly declared the loser. He had appealed against that decision, but his appeal was rejected.
AIBA has certainly shown double standards in their decision making and the whole Indian contingent are going to raise their voices in protest in London as early as possible on Saturday morning.
