    Disgraceful how they can rob a manโ€™s dream like that. Surely some sort of an appeal based on video evidence can be lodged!?

    Just seen it. Corruption thatโ€™s hidden is one thing, itโ€™s hard to deal with, but there the judges might as well have picked up their brown envelopes at the ringside! how blatant can you get?

    Even if its justified in this case Derek but even when Irish boxers are beat fair and square we still canโ€™t help ourselves not to have a moan at the judges.

    Michaels apponent threw a mere 2 punches that connected in the first round. How that first round went against Michael is beyond me. Absolutely robbed in general. Hopefully he gets to Rio
