Bayi vs Georgetown basketball fight censored on Chinese video sharing site?

JSB WIRE REPORTS

Earlier today, Juiced Sports reported on a memo sent to some Chinese television stations instructing them not to report on the Bayi vs Georgetown basketball fight.

Now it appears the Chinese video-sharing site Youku is deleting videos of the fight.

As seen below, there have been a lot of videos uploaded to Youku of this fight:

But clicking through to any of them will bring you to this deletion notice:

“We’re very sorry, Youku cannot find the address.”

Guess China is really concerned about losing face over this.
