How Park Si-hun was ruined by the robbery of Roy Jones Jr. 

It makes me sad to see that he thinks building a true gold medalist will restore his honor. His honor is just fine with me, he proved it after the fight. He's about as honorable as you could ask for in an athlete.

@@logicaldude3611 : if Park really wanted to prove his honor dude he would not raise his arms in victory or excepted the gold medal!

@@henryc1000 Its awarded, doesn't matter if he didn't physically take it.

@@YourKingJDG The bottom line here is that the result was a corrupt decision by the officials. The IOC should have overturned the verdict.

@@logicaldude3611 no sir , good men do something or evil wins... he could have easily not accepted it , and the real ones would know ... he is haunted by his own actions not someone elses

He was celebrating right after "winning", though.

@@chadb7252 you would too if winning gold meant getting an exemption from the military draft

@@chadb7252 I remember him going over to Roy and lifting him up off the canvas. It's hard not to celebrate a little bit when you win an Olympic gold meal, but he knew that he lost the fight.

Couldn’t say it more rigjt

@@chadb7252 okay so did aljamain sterling after petr yan whats ur point

Shut up he raised his hands and accepted the gold medal he should’ve given it to Roy

@@blazer33x Are you joking?

Si-hun does not deserve either gold,silver, and bronze. His Olympic journey was totally "home cooking".

@@lumapas Nobody is disputing that

@@blazer33x he also told Roy that he knew he (Roy)won the fight. Had his hand raised against his will immediately after the fight. Also raised Roy’a hand at the medal ceremony.... But u just wanted to omit those parts huh?

Not really. He cheated a world class athlete out of his opportunity to have his talents recognized. I think that stings even more knowing that was kept from you. He didn’t know he’d go on to be a legendary fighter, tomorrow isn’t guaranteed. I don’t feel bad for cheaters failing to succeed after they cheated.

@@brandonvasser5902 he didn't even cheat tho you weirdo. He didn't want to win that fight because he felt he lost.

@@brandonvasser5902 Bro did you even watch the video or are even familiar with this whole ordeal? The guy didn't cheat, the judges called the fight. Judges all call the fights period. Park recognizes back in 88 that he didn't win and even to this day he knows he doesn't deserve the medal. The only people that cheated Jones Jr. out of a Gold Medal were the judges.

@@aison4014 He should have given jones the medal during the ceremony but instead he kept it for himself

@@AkigumoCH u get fined thousands of dollars i heard

Yeah it was

Yes it was, he could also have given him the gold medal at the podium in front of everyone

@@clarence6124 How naive are you? Korean higher ups who orchestrated the bribe would make him living in a nightmare if that happened.

They all got banned for life

@NUMBER ELEVEN Pacquiao did not win that fight against Mayweather. I agree with the other two but that one? No!

You mean the olympics

btw, judges from the USSR and Hungary gave the victory to Jones

and there's the karate gold medalist today lol

@@ruffgodz9543 Yep

cuz he a coward, he was there .. all he had to do was like no sir i lost... he is haunted by hi actions not the judges

@@ruffgodz9543That guy is proud of getting knocked out for a gold too lol.

Yea ma’am I will

@April 2520 how are there so many people like you who hold a grudge against him even tho Jones himself said he doesn't?

@April2520 Lol he doesn't care about the physical medal. What he wants is to change the actual result.

facts

It was 1988 lol

That's actually the point. The gold medal ruined him because he didn't earn it and everyone knew it. Had Jones been announced the rightful winner, Park would have been honored to take home the silver. I have no idea how great Jones would have been without the extra anger from the Olympic snub had he won the gold, but Park's life would have gone much different if he came home a hero for winning the silver.

@@KHayes666 he didn’t deserve either. He was gifted wins in previous rounds too

@@claydouglas2526 I know, but outside of Italy (the previous gift) nobody would have cared if he had lost to Jones

Apparently, cheating is most important!

@@KHayes666 everyone forgets what real men do, they dont accept the medal an tell the truth

Lie.. Complete lie.. Entire Stadium was cheering the outcome.. national pride overshadowed righteousness.. Everyone who cheered the outcome should be ashamed... 🙏🙏

@@vikrantsood2053 You're absolutely right. He obviously hasn't watched the fight. The entire audience of Koreans broke into loud cheers when Park was declared the winner. To his credit, Park was probably the only Korean in that auditorium who didn't celebrate the "victory"

@@thebeatnumber I agree.. park knew that was lost outrightly.... And his sportsman's spirit didn't allow him to celebrate.. 🙏🙏

@@vikrantsood2053 im pretty sure every Olympic is corrupted asf and alot of nations do this as well not defending koreans at all but im just saying that the Olympics are too corrupted

@@vikrantsood2053 do you think that they cheered right after the man picked Ray Jones up off the ground in order to display with that he thought Roy Jones won and that he lost? I don't know because I wasn't even around back then. But you say that the entire crowd was cheering but someone else is saying they were doing the opposite. Now I have to go watch the decision and the reaction one more time and pay more attention. Roy Jones has been a record from the very very beginning of this travesty, by saying that the opponent recognized Roy Jones jr. As the winner within the ring and when they were in their locker rooms. I want you to flip the script. If the very exact same thing happened with in the USA, do you think the crowd would not be cheering for the American who got the decision? I mean absolutely one hundred percent flip the script! Please tell me do you believe that the American crowd would not cheer if an American just won the gold medal according to judges? I'm like everybody else that's probably seen this video and absolutely believe that Roy Jones jr. Got robbed. I do not know what happened at that moment they Rose the hand of the Korean. I definitely need to go back and actually watch that part of the video. I ask you one more time if you believe that if it had been a flip of the script, do you believe Americans would had booed the decision or would have cheered and American even if they knew he didn't really win? I have to go back and check this out because you have me curious as a youngin here. Never one person say that Roy Jones did not win the fight. Right now I plan to stop this and go watch the raising of the hands and then also listen to the crowd. I'm going to come back and I'm going to tell you exactly what I hear and see upon the raising of the hands and the crowd cheering at what point. So we got one person that says they were there and if the crowd was silent at the reason of the hand. Then there's you who says that the crowd was cheering. The only way for me to figure this out is to go back and watch the end of the fight. I'll definitely come back and tell you you're right or you're wrong. Not trying to be all combative and controversial but I got to actually see something as a young buck before I believe it when I got two different people making comments that are opposite

That's never gonna happen and just water under the bridge at this point. Roy is still one of the Goats tho

I don’t think you can

@@Onepride5608 Why? What they gonna put you in jail if you do?

@@KushMyCologneee agreed... they can do nothing about it, and it is not a criminal offense.

To swap medals, I don't think anyone would be able to do that. You don't have that much time to think. The first instinct for any person is to do what's best for himself.

Korea would have gave him hell if he did that...

apparently they're ok w one another. there's a piece in the Guardian that quotes Jones as saying, "When I had that problem in South Korea, I went with an interpreter to face the guy I fought ... I asked him ‘Did you win that fight?’ He shook his head and said ‘No’. And then I was cool with it. If you tell me the truth, I’m cool.”

he lifted jones after the match and raised his arm at the medal ceremony. i think its clear what he was saying. nationalism is very strong in korea he probably didnt want to show up his country in front of the world.

What happened?

I bet 🤣

@@offbrandbret5868 you couldn't tell from the video?

Yup. He deserve nothing in this sport

@@peopleclash2161 How about respect? Or is that term totally "foreign" to you?

100% agree.

I wonder if any of his Olympic wins were legitimate? If the Olympics were in any other country he probably doesn't get past the first round.

Roy landed way more punches in this fight anyways, those judges needed to be knocked out in a back alley.

This is a true statement amateur boxing is not as significant as it was in the past, particularly the olympic games. It's good for a showcase of talent but the problem is not only with the way the fights are scored but also the lack of quality judges. And payoffs and kickbacks. People who become judges need to be people of high integrity. It's happening in the professional ranks as well.

I don't think it's that simple

they don't technically own the medals. I think they can gift them, but if he did it in this controversial way they'd probably take it. Same with grammy's, Oscars, etc. You don't technically own it.

@@supervegeta101 I don't think anyone in the Olympic committee would go after him for that. It's pretty much universally accepted they fucked up, why would they want that extra heat.

@@Future_Imperfect at the very least it would force them into some sort of a decision, even if it's a decision not to act.

@@avocadoo4387 it literally is, it's a made up game with made up rules and made up rewards. They can just give the medal to whoever if they wanted (sort of how they did when robbed this man of a clear win)

Don't forger Rocky Juarez in 2000 where the Russian referee let Bekzat literally clinch the entire fourth round with no warning or points awarded to Rocky.

He should have gone out way before the final, 3 other boxers were robbed before Jones
