As if niggers can actually do anything requiring creativity and talent. Asia loves this shit. [Ever seen a Korean turn into the upside-down Tasmanian Devil?](https://youtu.be/jFKvFcr01RY?t=319)

Anything based on points or judges is BS.

You have a race. The first one to the finish wins.

You have weightlifting. Whoever lifts the most wins.

You have jumping, throwing, wrestling. All have clear winners.

Then you have points, where someone wins because one judge though the other guy's pinky toe was slightly bent.

Anything based on "points" is an art not a sport. I agree with you completely.

There are points in boxing in the case of an actual knock out is not achieved.

At round 12, fighters are typically so worn out that they're shuffling their feet. At that point the audience gets bored and will begin booing. Hence the implementation of a point system to get a match over with.


It would, however, be interesting if they were to implement a sudden death round where the 2 fighters just trade blows back and forth, no blocking, until one goes down. Like a hockey fight.

One problem is that most of the most exciting stuff in the Winter Olympics is all based on points, like the halfpipe.

Yeah, a sport should be objective, otherwise you introduce a large amount of subjective opinions from judges who might want to boost their own country's ranking or harm a rival's.

Wrestling is not a sport.

And even in powerlifting the judges make decisions on whether the lift is valid or not, and it's often a grey area.

In any case I disagree; there are a lot of competitive endeavors that can be fairly judged by experts. Like art.

Really? We have "experts" today that will tell you DaVince was a patriarchal appropriator who learned everything he knew from a Chinaman and could only convey messages through a heteronormative, ciscentered experiostromy.

What, objectivly, qualifies them as experts?

Or honest, for that matter. The Olympic games see some of the shadiest shit in sports; you trust all your experts to refuse the kind of bribe entire countries pay?

The only way you know if you win is if everyone can clearly see it. Having better cameras or clarification on ambiguous situations doesn't change that. If you need to trust an expert, why even watch?

>Wrestling is not a sport.

You're not a sport.

The point I'm making is that even things like art can be *objectively* judged. The judgment has to come from experts though, because the general population wouldn't be able to understand the difficulty of something. I wouldn't be able to distinguish Mozart from a random composer, for example, because I don't understand music.

The fact that a judge may be wrong does not invalidate this.

You're promoting the idea of the liberals, who claim that art cannot be objectively assessed and therefore the Sistine Chapel is the same as some feminist modern art bullshit.

Breakdancing has been competitive for a long time, the problem is:

1) Competitive b-boy dancing has always been a less-than-serious affair and there's less on the line, so there's less conflict over subjective calls.

2) ANYTHING involving the IOC's IOC's corrupt bullshit is trash.

Now honestly I don't have a problem with this being in the Olympics, or a lot of other stuff. I think it definitely should be kind of in its own sort of 'subdivision' of said Olympics, though.
