Idi Amin’s grandson Aziz Abdul disqualified for headbutt at Commonwealth Games

Idi Amin’s grandson was disqualified for a headbutt in the third round of his opening super-heavyweight bout against England’s Damar Thomas at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.

Twenty-five year old Aziz Abdul, who arrived on a mission to become “the new king of Scotland”, was penalised three times for fouls and thrown out midway through the third and final round.

Afterwards, Aziz raged at the officials and accused them of bias. “There were a lot of fouls,” insisted Aziz, who also berated reporters in the mixed zone. “This referee’s decision is not right and I am not happy.

“Of course it’s unfair. When you watch the previous fights of England, their boxers create a lot of fouls and they play a lot of bull****. I am a black African, I know. I don’t why the officials are scared about this fight.”

Aziz had warned in the build-up that he would need to emulate one of his grandfather’s famous sayings if he was to emerge victorious and reach the semi-finals. Amin once advised that “the only way to defeat an enemy who is against the country is to win by knockout”.

Amin was an accomplished boxer before becoming president of Uganda in 1971. During his eight-year reign an estimated 500,000 people were killed and he expelled Uganda’s entire Asian population before he was deposed and sent into exile.

Amin declared himself the “King of Scotland” in 1976, having developed a fascination with the country. His remark inspired an Oscar-winning film, The Last King Of Scotland, starring the Glasgow-born actor James McAvoy.

Aziz was certainly bullish about his famous relative in the fight’s build-up, and despite a reach disadvantage of at least five inches, he sought to take the fight to Thomas, a former youth world champion.
