Banned for life

How about this one: Cuban Taekwondo fighter Angel Matos was disqualified after taking too long of a break during an injury time out so he took it out on the ref  with a kick to the head.

    Got him and his coach banned FOR LIFE. So stupid. Great sportsmanship that’s being shown within the male combat sports. How about the wrestler that threw his medal because he disagreed with the results? Man up.

    Actually he didn’t “throw” anything. He congratulated the other two medal winners first like a real gent, and then PLACED his medal on the floor and then walked away. I applaud him because I think he handled himself in a very mature way. Plus he was right, he should’ve won that match.

    at the ref?? how dumb is he?
    martial arts are about respecting each other and the decisions of the ref…even if you know that they’re wrong. if you can’t handle it, quit it.
