Roy Jones Jr., 3:2 Judges Zaur Gvadzhava of the Soviet Union and Sándor Pajar of Hungary each voted for Jones, 60–56, on the 20-point must system. But Alberto Duran of Uruguay and Hiouad Larbi of Morocco voted for Park, each by 59–58. Bob D. Kasule of Uganda gave 59–59 a draw, but decided that Park was more aggressive. As the decision was highly controversial, it eventually led the Olympic authorities to introduce a new high-tech scoring system , which in turn was intended to eliminate biased judging.
