Wow.
Michael Conlan has been eliminated from the Olympic Games after a hugely controversial defeat to Vladimir Nitkin of Russia in the men's bantamweight quarter-finals in Rio de Janeiro.
Despite Conlon completely dominating the fight, the judges somehow awarded Nitkin the fight on a unanimous decision, much to the disbelief of a clearly enraged Conlan afterwards and of anyone who watched the fight.
Needless to say, there was a huge reaction to what was a scandalous decision.
