Chinese boxer mistakenly thinks he won an Olympic boxing match, has heartbreaking reaction when he realizes he's wrong
Chinese boxer LV Bin went through many people's worst nightmare at the Rio Olympics on Monday.
When his bout with Kenyan boxer Peter Warui went down to a decision, Bin seemed confident that he was going to win.
But when the judge made the decision, Bin appeared to misunderstand the judge and began celebrating.
The only problem was that he actually lost and seemed to only realize when Warui began celebrating even more excitedly.
Here was Bin when the announcement was first made. He even let out an excited scream:
