Ugandan boxer Aziz Abdul - the grandson of dictator Idi Amin - was disqualified from his fight at the Commonwealth Games after appearing to headbutt his English opponent. The 25-year-old was punished after lifting his head into Damar Thomas' chin as the pair grappled in the third round. Abdul later claimed the judges were against him because he is a "black African". "When you watch the previous fights of England their boxers create a lot of fouls," he said. "I land a heavy punch on him, they never count. Instead of counting they deduct me. Before the super-heavyweight bout Abdul told the BBC he wanted to become the new 'King of Scotland' - in reference to Amin declaring himself that name in 1976. After taking power in a coup in 1971, Amin ran a brutal regime during which an estimated half a million people were killed. He was also known as the Butcher of Uganda. Abdul, who never met his grandfather, was chasing Uganda's first Commonwealth boxing medal since Auckland in 1990 - something which would have been guaranteed had he beaten Thomas.
