Boxing - NBC asked to cease ringside commentary

LONDON (Reuters) - Olympic boxing's governing body said it had asked London Games' organisers to tell American broadcaster NBC to cease its ringside commentary at the boxing arena on Friday because they were disrupting officials.

NBC, a unit of Comcast Corp, was the only broadcaster allowed to commentate from the ringside floor and the International Boxing Association (AIBA) said they disturbed officials sitting next to them throughout the competition.
