Aziz Abdul, the grandson of former Ugandan dictator Idi Amin, has accused officials of conspiring against him after he was disqualified for headbutting England's Damar Thomas at the Commonwealth Games.
Abdul, 25, who fights under the nickname Ringo, is a super heavyweight boxer and a descendant of Amin, who murdered hundreds of thousands of people during his regime as Ugandan president. Amin took power in 1971 and was himself an accomplished boxer before entering politics. He is alleged to have fathered 50 children.
Abdul said he had set out to be crowned the 'new King of Scotland' before judges terminated his bout with Thomas in the third round.
Abdul's reaction
"All I can say about this is the referee's decision is not right and I am not happy," Abdul said. "This n***** next time, I will get him. Anytime in the future. Two years, five years, 10 years. I will show him that Aziz Ringo is a real warrior."
He accused judges of favouring English fighters. "When you watch the previous fights of England, their boxers create a lot of fouls and they play a lot of bull****," he said. "They cannot judge them wrong. I took a light punch and they counted. I landed a heavy punch on him and they deduct my points and warn me."
Claims of racism
"Of course it's unfair. I'm a black African, I know. It's God's plan. I don't know why the officials are scared about this fight. Why can't they let this fight continue," Abdul said.
He also claimed officials wanted a British boxer in the final. "How can I headbutt someone?" he said. "I would not headbutt someone. He is the real person they wanted to win. He was the winner before. I knew if I could not get a knockout then I would not win the fight because he's at home. It's an away match for me here. All I say is it's God's plan and I wish him good luck for his next fight."
