Svetlana Kamenova was one step away from a medal in the women’s Olympic boxing tournament at the Paris Games. The Bulgarian performed well, but lost to Lin Yu Tin after a unanimous decision.
Scandal in Paris! They cut Svetlana Kamenova against the transgender Lin
Borislav Georgiev defined the loss of our girl as scandalous. In front of BNT, the coach of the Bulgarian boxer expressed his indignation and described the match as arranged.
“For me, it was an absolutely fine match. Just seeing the referee’s outfit down there…The first and second rounds were absolutely ours. The Taiwanese played dirty, she was given an official warning already in the first round. He elbowed her four or five times, and also did circus work. I am outraged at what referees are allowed to do – to do whatever they want,” he began.
“This tolerance from the IOC against these two athletes awakens the same from the judges towards them. The IOC supports these two athletes, it is normal that their subordinates do as well. It was pure robbery. Svetlana relaxed and played great for me. I am also satisfied with Stanimira. They played with gusto, heart and dignity for Bulgaria,” said Georgiev.
