yeah, bronze is good but we could have had gold.
The guy he lost to was someone Cook had beat on multiple occasions.

Yes, he probably would have, but you never know. It will be a case of coulda, woulda, shoulda.

Aaron Cook was treated harshly, and we will never know what would of happened.

If i was Cook i would defect and fight for the Aussies or the Yanks. I would be very pi$$ed off if i was him

I think that Muhammad was better than the Spanish guy, he was just not as smart as him. He was too over-zealous and got picked off.

Cook should still have gone, mind.

Why didn't they let Cook compete?

posted on 10/8/12

Good question?

posted on 10/8/12

Because Cook wanted to have his own coaches rather than Taekwondo federations own ones.

^^^ just about to say that

British Taekwondo for some reason decided that the world's number one fighter was not good enough

He also left their system and got his own coaches

people shouldnt write khan off as a boxer yet.

the decision in his previous fight was a joke, so he's basically lost once because he got sloppy.

he's a stylish and quality boxer, unlike some of the clowns in this olympics like ogogo who looks like he;s just falled out of the pub.

Really, he hurt their pride, so they responded like little bïtches.

Hmmm poor decision making then. At least Muhammed got a bronze in his place.

Ogogo is a shocking boxer, and he got shown up today.

Abit like when Mark Foster wanted to train with his own coaches rather than the Swimming head coach Sweetenham a few Olympics ago. They had a pretty big difficult relationship.

I'm happy for Muhammed but it annoys me BTF will no doubt be thinking they've been justified by his bronze.

I labelled him an "alcopop scrapper" after his last fight AFL

10 minutes to go

Says something about our training systems when people want out and when they do get out they become much better

posted on 10/8/12

I think it says more about the guys in charge of federations having their heads up their own behind...

It is about time we stopped this faux love affair with Shanaze Reade....two Olympics,lots of funding and absolutely nothing to show for it.

Lets call time on her and this so called sport....pathetic as it is.

If you want to watch something similar visit your local park area and watch the locals as opposed to wasting money on this tripe.

I must say I found it ridiculous that they have 3-4 runs in the quarter finals and semi finals to qualify for the final then for it to come down to one race when essentially it's a complete lottery.

If they're only going to have 1 race they should at least have a 3 lap circuit
