He should have channeled his anger until he was away from the judges and ref then had a good hissy fit but he attacked a ref which isn't cool plus he would have gotten a bronze which is better than nothing and how many can say they got to go to the Olympics? Just being there is an honor but oh well he won't be going back ever again.

Norton will become famous soon enough



I saw the video, and I think he stands up just the moment the timer hits 0:00.


That's what made him get pissed off.

He kicked the ref hard enough for the ref to require stitches to the face.

There was also the Sarah Stevenson controvercy (although I dare anyone of intelligence to say that that kick should not have scored points), although it shows that China showed the good sportmanship of the Olympics to accept the kick fair and square.

Maybe this is the end for Olympic Taekwondo since I hear a lot of people are now calling for it to be removed from the games.

It was outright ridiculous that someone would do this. So the judge was harsh in his opinion, but that's just because he lost bronze by like a point. If he wanted to improve himself, he should of practiced more and competed again, to try to go for bronze or higher in 2012 but now he's ruined that chance.

I agree with the choice,
