The fallout from a series of extremely controversial decisions at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro continued Thursday, as the International Boxing Association (AIBA) announced it has reassigned executive director Karim Bouzidi.Italys Franco Falcinelli, president of the European Boxing Confederation and the most senior vice president on AIBAs executive board, was tapped to take his place. He will oversee the final four days of competition in Rio.The move was made one day after AIBA, the organization that runs amateur boxing, removed an undisclosed number of unnamed referees and judges from the Rio Olympics for failing to perform competently in a series of bouts that left many stunned by seemingly outrageous decisions awarded to boxers who appeared to be clearly beaten in one-sided fashion.There have been reports that six judges were sent home.Further to the decision taken by AIBA with regard to the reassessment of the judges and referees officiating during the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, the AIBA Vice Presidents and Executive Board members have decided to reassign with immediate effect the current AIBA Executive Director to a new role within the organization, AIBA said in a statement.?Three bouts in particular caused outrage. Russias Evgeny Tishchenko claimed the heavyweight gold medal by unanimous three-round decision, 29-28 on all three judges scorecards, against Kazakhstans Vassiliy Levit on Monday in a fight in which Levit appeared to dominate all three rounds.On Tuesday, Uzbekistans Fazliddin Gaibnazarov was awarded a split decision against American Gary Antuanne Russell, 29-28 twice for Gaibnazarov and 29-28 for Russell, in the light welterweight quarterfinals. Russell battered him in the second and third rounds and Gaibnazarov was warned repeatedly by the referee to fight because he was running and refusing to engage.Also, Russias Vladimir Nikitin was awarded a unanimous decision -- 29-28 on all three scorecards -- against Irelands Michael Conlan in the bantamweight quarterfinals despite obvious dominance by Conlan, who was so incensed by the scoring that during a postmatch outburst, he spun around the ring and flipped double middle fingers at the judges. He later accused Russian president Vladimir Putin of paying off the judges, tweeting to him, Hey Vlad Putin, how much did they charge you bro??The Olympic Games, of which boxing has been a part since 1904, represent the pinnacle of all sports. Since the beginning of Rio 2016, AIBA has conducted over 250 bouts and remains fully committed to fair play in boxing, always seeking to act in the boxers utmost interests, AIBAs statement said. The decisions taken emphasize that AIBA will not shy away from its responsibilities and will continue to ensure a level playing field and a fair and transparent sport. It is of paramount importance to protect our sport and its R&J [referee and judges] community whose integrity has been put into question.AIBA did not detail the specific reasons it reassigned Bouzidi, who is from Algeria.Although Nikitin advanced to the semifinals, where he was scheduled to face American Shakur Stevenson on Thursday for the right to fight for gold, he was so battered by Conlan that he dropped out of the tournament. Stevenson will get a walkover and is assured of a silver medal. He will face Robeisy Ramirez, of Cuba, in the gold-medal match on Saturday afternoon. Stevenson has the chance to win the first mens boxing gold medal for Team USA since Andre Ward won the light heavyweight gold at the 2004 Athens Games. NFL Jerseys China Cheap .

FARMINGDALE, N.Y. -- It was earlier this week when Patrick Reed, that fist-pumping, Europe-shushing, putt-dropping ball of momentum who solidified himself as the darling of an otherwise bleak United States team effort at the Ryder Cup two years ago, was asked why that event means so much to him.He narrowed his eyes, shook his head and paused for a few seconds, clearly taken aback by the sheer audacity of the question. It was as if he had been asked why water is wet or why the sun is hot. Then he stammered the only explanation he could muster: Its the Ryder Cup.While Reed did eventually elaborate as to why the biennial competition holds such importance, those four words should serve as the only necessary justification for why he so desperately wants to represent the red, white and blue once again this year.If he keeps playing like this at The Barclays, his probability of a roster spot will become a certainty by the end of the weekend.Reed entered this event as No. 8 on the U.S. points list, with the top eight players after this week having guaranteed automatic qualifying spots on the team. All of which placed him firmly on the bubble, not that hes showing the effects of feeling any pressure.With rounds of 66 and 68, Reed leads by 2 strokes over Rickie Fowler and Emiliano Grillo going into a weekend at Bethpages Black Course that could garner him an elusive first victory of this season, an invitation to the upcoming Tour Championship and, yes, an automatic berth on the Ryder Cup team.Not that hes thinking about the residuals.Really, Im going into this week trying to win a golf tournament, he said after a second round that included six birdies against just three bogeys. At the end of the day, if I go and I take care of me and do what I need to do this week, then the Ryder Cup will take care of itself. So Im not going into this week looking at it as, Oh, I need to do this for the Ryder Cup. Im going to think, Alright, I need to go win a golf tournament, and everything else will take care of itself.Winning hasnt come easy for him this season. A four-time PGA Tour champion, he has amassed 14 results in the top 25, nine in the top 10 and a pair of runner-up finishes at the Hyundai Tournament of Champions and Valero Texas Open.ddddddddddddSome players -- especially those of the elite variety -- might consider their seasons a disappointment without a single trophy for the mantle, but Reed maintains that he can still have a successful campaign without one.Its golf, he explained. You have guys that are going to win in years and youre going to have guys that arent going to win in years. I think this year has been a lot better than last year and the previous years on consistency. Thats a big part that Ive been working on is to make sure I keep myself into golf tournaments. Not go out and win an event here and then miss two or three cuts and finish 50th, 40th.Its about consistency: consistently getting in contention, consistently having chances to win. If I keep doing that, I will at some point break through and win hopefully a couple in a row, not just one.Preaching about consistency seems like a peculiar strategy for a guy who has so often played inspired golf when the moment calls for it. This is the same player who put an index finger to his lips after rolling in a birdie putt during his singles match against Henrik Stenson two years ago at Gleneagles, the same player who called himself a top-fiver earlier that year.Even though Reed has only displayed a poker face when discussing how much the Ryder Cup is on his mind this week, at least one peer believes the prospect of qualifying for the team is the perfect form of motivation for him.All youve got to do is light the fire a little with him, said Jordan Spieth, his partner for three matches in the 2014 Ryder Cup. If he plays golf with some, whether it be motivation or just feeling like hes been a little off and he needs to just do that little bit extra, he always brings it.So far, Reed is bringing it this week.Whether he admits it or not, that Ryder Cup roster spot is a tantalizing carrot dangling right in front of him. Reed desperately wants to be on that team and isnt afraid to explain how important it is.Just ask him. Hell offer a slight scowl and a pause, then just four words.Its the Ryder Cup.
