I can understand that maybe Szabo admitted the point due to crowd pressure more than honesty (i had this mild impression too), but honestly...his job is not to ref his own bout. I personally regret making a judgment on referee Douvis once because he called a parry riposte for Kim Junghwan when there wasn't, and even other commenters shamed Kim for not admitting the point...it wasnt until i saw a THIRD video angle that was more right facing (fencing brothers) where it looked like a genuine parry from the angle of Douvis and also Kim. This sport goes so fast, angles are weird, sometimes I try not to have extremely strong opinions (this is not the Yakimenko drop or Alshamlan stopping the bout).

It was pressure, not sportsmanship.

[@FencingViolinNerd]

Yea there was no way he was going to admit he was out of it wasn’t for the audience

[@DonovanDeans]

He even indicated for the dissenters to "sssh" until the boo's and pressure made it uncomfortable. He's not a bastard, but he's not noble either.

[@fencingwithlaszlo]

He is Hungarian fencer.
