Michael Conlan’s bout with Vladimir Niktin is just one of the fights cited by Richard McLaren in his investigation into boxing at the 2016 Olympics.

McLaren’s reports says there was a culture of “fear, intimidation and obedience” among AIBA officials.
He found that “a system for the manipulation of bouts by officials existed at Rio”.
