You'll be hard-pressed to find a more inspiring Olympic athlete right now than light-heavyweight boxer Ihab Almatbouli of Jordan.

He understands this, and he won't fade away into the sunset after falling to Cuba's Julio La Cruz Peraza 25-8 in their round of 16 bout Saturday at the 2012 Summer Olympics.

Jordan prince Feizal Al Hussein was a motivational presence for Almatbouli during his bout at ExCel.
