  3. Guys, stop arguing. It was a tight competition. It was decided in the last throw. All three competitors shown here are very complete athletes and it's an honour for the Olympics to have them in. Abakumova did badly in the Olympics, but this can happen to anyone, any time. Athletes are not robots. Keep this in mind.
