American boxer Rau'shee Warren danced, danced, danced his way to defeat.
Sure, the Olympic scoring system stinks (we've covered that), and yeah the scoring of this particual Olympics seems to biased towards Chinese fighters (hmmmmm, wonder why?), but Warren has no one else to blame but himself.
Arguably America's best chance at capturing a gold medal in this year's boxing, Warren found himself on top of his "De La Hoya Bicycle" ( in honor of DLH's tactic against Trinidad) trying to just squeak by his opponent.
Warren, listening to the crowd instead of his coach, moved himself right out of the Olympics and right back home with nothing to show for it. Warren swears he heard the crowd tell him to "Move", but what kind of fighter listens to the crowd over his coach?
A losing fighter, that's who.
ESPN is running a story that questions the scoring rather than holding the fighter accountable. The Boxing Stop will not follow suit.
Rau'shee Warren, you lost because you thought you could win a fight by running away.
What a shame.
