Olympic Boxer Ogogo Says He Was Racially Abused By A Norwich City Fan

#mynameiskay



Ogogo, who won a bronze medal in the middleweight category at the London Olympics in 2012, was in the stands when the incident occurred and took to Twitter to express his disgust.
‘Terrific support tonight by Norwich fans, nine thousand strong,’ the 28-year-old tweeted. ‘Although I did get racially abused for cheering. In this day and age its disgusting.
‘Worst of all it was by a Norwich fan that thought I was Arsenal. Utterly disgusted by that behaviour. It shows how backwards some people are.’
Anti-discrimination body Kick It Out have reached out to Ogogo to discuss his comments and have contacted both Arsenal and Norwich regarding the allegations.
Sportsmail has contacted Norwich for comment.
