TEAM GB’s super-heavyweight success ended in controversy after Delicious Orie was disqualified from the Olympics.

Orie was bidding to become the sixth man to win a super-heavyweight medal for Great Britain in seven Olympics but lost a controversial decision to Armenia’s Davit Chaloyan.

This meant that for the first time in a decade, Team GB failed to win a super-heavyweight medal – while Orie is now tipped to turn professional.

But it has had mixed success, from boxing superstardom to reality TV, and failed to live up to the hype.

Audley Harrison, Sydney 2000
Harrison became the first Briton to win super-heavyweight gold in Australia and returned home a hero.

Sponsors lined up to sign him professionally and he signed a £1m deal with the BBC to broadcast his first ten fights.

And he got off to a flying start, winning 19 straight in five years – until he faced Danny Williams for the Commonwealth title.

Williams – who had beaten an out-of-form Mike Tyson the year before – won by split decision.

Harrison was then beaten in his next fight by Dominick Guinn, sending his career into a tailspin.

In the following years, his world title ambitions were dashed by inconsistent form.

He then fought David Haye in a domestic bout in 2010 but lost in three rounds – landing just TWO punches.

A year after the infamous defeat, Harrison appeared on Strictly Come Dancing – KO’d in the seventh round.

Harrison’s boxing career sadly ended in 2013 when he lost to future heavyweight champion and star Deontay Wilder.

A year later, he took part in Celebrity Big Brother alongside boxing promoter Kellie Maloney – formerly Frank.

In 2016, Harrison appeared on Celebrity MasterChef and now spends his time as a boxing commentator and professional poker player.

David Price, 2008 Beijing
The 6ft 8in Liverpool giant beat Tyson Fury as a youngster after becoming one of the only men to beat the Gypsy King in the boxing ring.

Price won a bronze medal in China and turned pro with great expectations – not helped much by the prediction of future champion Tony Bellew.

Bellew told iFL TV in 2012: “David Price is the heir to Klitschko’s throne.”

Price, Fury and Wilder were all tipped as successors to Wladimir and Vitali Klitschcko, but only two of them have done so.

Because while Fury beat Wladimir in 2015, the same year Wilder won the WBC belt, Price has struggled since.

He was knocked out twice by Tony Thompson in 2013 – despite the American testing positive for a banned substance.

In 2017, Price was chasing a big fight with Joshua, revealing he had knocked out a young AJ in a sparring match.

Joshua admitted the story was true but the fight never happened as Price went on to be knocked out by Christian Hammer and Alexander Povetkin.

His career came to a disastrous end in 2019 after a defeat to Derek Chisora ​​- and Price spent his retirement cheering on his beloved Reds.

Anthony Joshua, 2012 London
Joshua finished second at the 2011 World Championships but had trouble with the law that same year.

He avoided jail for drugs offences and turned his life around to qualify for the London Olympics – where AJ’s path to stardom began.

Joshua won gold in his home country and was quickly signed by Eddie Hearn – a promising promoter at the time.

Within four years, he was heavyweight champion and one of the biggest stars in Britain.
