How good is it to hear the crowd at the Olympic Games, at the cycling and on the last day of competition!

Olympic motto - Higher, faster, but not too stronger
if being knocked out gives you a medal, I've got a chance!

That seems harsh on the guy who kicked him out, he did walk into it a bit....

True but I reckon I'm good enough to wave my hands around aimlessly and make a hash of trying to kick him.

I was trying to say I feel bad for the guy who got DQed. I agree you could present a viable target

I told you that, whatever the ferk it is, is shit. The only memorable thing was that tidy bit of Ukrainian delight.

Lucky it wasn’t like that in prize fighting back in the day or else Rocky Marcianos record would have read 6-43 instead of 49-0.

it's not a full contact sport in this form, though. It's a skill competition/demonstration as far as I know.

But at that speed it must be difficult to keep control of your force.

I'm not defending them here, just sharing what I understand. It seems to be in the rules - if you're not pulling your punches/kicks, you're not in control, and you get pinged for it.
