Full coverage of the round of 32 bout in the men's light heavy (81kg) boxing event between Tunisia's Yahia Elmekachari and Tajikistan's Jakhon Qurbonov at the London 2012 Olympic Games.
Boxing made its Olympic debut at the 1904 Games in St Louis, since then boxing has been staged at each edition of the Games, except in 1912 in Stockholm, owing to Swedish law, which forbade the practice.
The rules have evolved since the 1980s: 1984 in Los Angeles: protective helmet obligatory; 1992 in Barcelona: set-up of an electronic scoring system to strengthen the objectivity of refereeing; 2007: standardised point scoring. Women's boxing will make its debut at the 2012 London Games in London.

Wow, this tunisian guy, like an arabian version of Tyson. Hope I can find more videos of him.

[@midouvampire]

He's retired from boxing now because the tunisian boxing community ignored him many times
