Why did the Greek-Roman fighter from Sweden flung his Olympic bronze medal on the floor and left?

Question

Yesterday Ara Abrahamjan did not even waited for the end of the ceremony of awarding. he demonstratively threw the medal right after it was on his neck. The TV commentator was not able to explain what happened. Unless he had a serious reason his behavior is unacceptable. he should be disqualified.

Answer 1

He was mad at the scoring of his match and it was his last of his career. Anything less than gold was a failure.I do agree he was an a$$ for acting that way.

Answer 2

There's no excuse for it. Regardless of his feelings he showed a lack of respect for the other medalists.

Answer 3

He's being reviewed for disciplinary sanctions:
