Great result. Great skills displayed. I see the next women's boxing star in her! :bounce: Much inspite my apprehension, she actually dominated the local Kazakh boxer for most of it. I was worried about bias in the results. The 1st two rounds were rightfully unanimous for Sonia. The 3rd round brought...
To make it worse, Sarita Devi also lost :-( While she was leading after the 1st two rounds, it was very clear from Round 3 that she was tired and struggling.

Isn't there a world championship going on? i understand the likes of Sushil Kumar are probably not particpating but we must be having quite a few others. There is no coverage here!!!
yes, i saw that referral bit and was surprised they rejected it. the player was clearly within 5m and even the commentators, who were quite sure about it, were shocked it wasn't given. this would not be relevant in the Asian Games. let's hope we continue our improvements and clinch the Gold! :goodlu...
any idea on prospects of arpinder singh for triple jump? he has the season's best and qualified fourth. i am assuming that we are done with 'foul maniac' renjith maheshwary and there is now new blood!
1 common issue i saw in both bouts was our boxers ran out of gas. it seems like while the hockey players are getting better, the boxers are getting poorer in stamina. i think we need a foreign coach here as well!!!
I was almost certain they would give up the adv. in last 10 min, just like they have always done But, i think terry walsh is making them fitter and mentally stronger for it.
