Olympic Games: Delicious Orie suffers shock defeat to Armenia’s Chaloyan

Orie, pinned as one of Team GB’s main medal hopes before the Paris Games, lost to Armenia’s Davit Chaloyan by a decision in the last 16.

The 27-year-old lost 3-2 on three of the five judges’ scorecards, with the other two cards being scored 3-2 in his favour.

It is a decision which could spark plenty of controversy, with the second seed seemingly dominating the encounter.

Orie was left visibly stunned as he dropped to the canvas following the decision.

After the fight, he said: “For the past eight years, I’ve always dreamed about that gold medal in the Olympic Games.

“Now it’s been taken away from me. It could be me, it could be from the judges. That’s what’s happened.

“But I feel like I’ve let myself down and let my family down.”

It follows a disappointing boxing performance for Great Britain so far, with Orie the fourth to lose in as many fights.
