In the final Chinese boxer, Chang defeated North Korean Boxer Pang by a split decision of 3-2. Pang was the more aggressive boxer through out the bout & the verdict came as a shock to the Korean side. They protested inside the ring. Eventually the security personnels were required to remove them from the ring. Many of the spectators also thought, Pang was the clear winner. So they booed the verdict & the boos continued even during the medal distribution ceremony.

North Korea challenged the verdict. Though the verdict was not overturned, AIBA restored the right to challenge a verdict of the boxing bouts in future amateur boxing tournaments.
