- Two officials thrown out of World Amateur Championships
- ‘I think the technology has incredible potential’
Two officials have been thrown out of the Aiba World Amateur Boxing Championships in Belgrade after being flagged as suspicious by a groundbreaking automated phone questionnaire which asked them: “Have you ever cheated in a boxing event?”
Prof Richard McLaren said the technology, which is used by law enforcement agencies, had given each of the 50 referees and judges, and 20 international technical officials a risk score ranging from low to high.
