Boxing at the 1980 Moskva Summer Games:

At only 18 years of age light-middleweight Armando Martínez was the baby of the Cuban team but Martínez had already made a big impression when he toured Eastern Europe in early 1980 and racked up an impressive run of victories against some the region's best fighters. The teenager became Olympic champion by beating Aleksandr Koshkin of the USSR in the final. Koshkin took standing counts in both the first and last rounds and lost on a 4-1 judges' decision. The fact that the Polish judge voted for the Soviet brought allegations of collusion between Eastern European countries – even against a fellow Communist country like Cuba. Martínez added the world amateur title in 1982 but injuries hampered his career from then onwards and he retired at an early age.
