Pride goes before a fall.
Well, those who saw the Chinese guy overbearing post performance (eg. kissing the poles, shaking hands with all other contestants except the one from Russia (for God knows why reason), you'll understand the judges decision better.
If the judges are really racists, there would be much lesser Gold medals for China.
Take it easy, my China friend.

Not sure if the judges are kelong on this occassion.
But on the whole there were quite a lot of ridiculous points awarded to British and American gymnasts.

This kelong takes the cake. Chen Yibing, the "Lord of the Rings", was robbed of a certain gold in the Roman rings when they awarded it to the Brazilian Arthur Zanetti in the most dubious decision of the tournament. Everyone in the arena agreed that the Chinese won it, except the judges.
Both had the same degree of difficulty, 6.8. Both executed their routine well, though the coaches and gymnasts there thought that Chen was slightly steadier. But Chen nailed his landing, while Zanetti hopped a step back, meriting a mandatory 0.3 pt deduction. Yet Chen had only a 9.0 for execution (total 15.80) vs Zanetti's 9.1 (total 15.90), losing the gold by 0.1 point.
Conspiracy theories are flying around at this moment, ranging from payback for China's dominant showing in the Beijing 2008 (9 out of 14 golds) to judges' being on the take from the organizers of Rio 2016.
Chen took it like a real champ, congratulating the Brazilian on the podium while announcing his retirement, without ranting and protesting like some contestants would. But his tears told the real story.

'King of rings' ends career in disputed scoring

LONDON - China's Chen Yibing, nicknamed "king of rings" failed to wrap up his career Sunday with an Olympic gold on his specialty, but a silver from disputed scoring is shining the gold light.
Chen, 28, was highly preferred to become the third gymnast to win two Olympic gold medals in this event after Albert Azaryan of Soviet Union in 1956 and Akinori Nakayama of Japan in 1968 and 1972.
A surprising and much disputed score of 16.900 for the last routine from Arthur Nabarrete deprived Chen of the gold and also a career closure in glory.

Chen started the final with an accurate routine of sound execution and stable landing, earning 16.800 points. The concluding routine from the Brazilian was finished in a stumbling landing, but the score for him is decent to beat Chen as the two shared the same difficulty of 6.8.
Bulgaria's six time Olympian Iordan Iovtchev, 39, was suspicious of the scoring. "Personally, I think Chen performed the best, but I'm not the judge," said Iovtchev, who finished seventh in the final.
Italian coach Maurizio Allievi echoed Iovtchev's point of view. "I don't think he (Nabarrete) did quite good on the rings. He not only made a step forward in his dismount, but some flaws can be found on his skills in supporting his body," said Allievi.
"He can't match with Chen and Morandi (bronze medalist) at all. Chen is better than Morandi in his routine execution," said he, adding a jump in Morandi's dismount is regretful and cost him points.
Igor Cassina, a TV commentator from Italy, was surprised by the points for Nabarrete. "It never should have been so high for the Brazilian. It's too high," said Cassina.
It's also a bitter result for Chen. "It's a surprise to me and I feel bitter inside," said Chen, who kissed the apparatus after his routine as a way to say good bye to Olympic stage.
"But what can I do? According to rules you can question only the points to yourself, you are not allowed to question point to other competitors," explained Chen.
"You can raise dispute only for your difficulty, but not for execution. It's a result you can only accept instead of reasoning."
Chen, dominant in the apparatus since he made a sensation victory at 2006 worlds, has won gold in his specialty at four of the past five world championships. His four world championship golds rank him only second to Italy's Yuri Chechi, who has five.
After its seven-gold-medal performance at the Beijing Games in 2008, the Chinese men's gymnastics team was hit with a wave of retirements.
There have been times in the ensuing years when Chen Yibing wished he would've been among them.
And yet here he is, the defending champion in the rings and the team competition, back in London as the core of a young team.
Chen admitted he's worried he'll end his career on a sour note prior to the London Olympic Games, and it turned out to be a controversial scoring to make a great story sour.
Chen is set to retire after the national games next year and will finish his graduate courses in the Beijing Physical Education University.
Before the rings final, Chen, as the team captain, had propelled China to defend the team title.

These AngMO kou are real bad loser..it is so blatantly clear that Zannetti step back on landing, while YiPing had perfect execution without mistake..even the commentator stated clearly that the step back of Zannetti..looking at the two objectively, almost close fight , maybe at best 0,05 to 0,1 different in performance EXCLUDING the last landing , which must at least deducts 0,1 to 0, 3 point from Zannetti...
It happen to Zhu Kai on the bar again, when the German were given higher than Zhu..even the Dutch , though had higher degree of difficulty, but executions wasnot perfert, quite a fair amount of body twisting and wobbly in execution..
Anyway, Angmo kou has been cheats,thieves and robbers in Asian and other regions for the last 3 century
even in sport, they also shamelessly cheat for medals..
