Boxing, Men's 80kg Final: Ankush wins Round 2

The second round starts with Kim wanting to take the matters on his own hands. Ankush is stepping behind, getting pinned to the ring and then finding ways to escape.

A lot of combination hooks missed from Ankush as Kim just ducks them with ease. 

A minute and 20s left on the clock and I feel this might again be a split in Ankush's favour as he lands a few blows.

The Indian relying on counter but hasn't really been as effective as I would have liked, if I was the judge. But hey, I'm obviously not.

The round comes to a close with a few blows exchanged from either side, as is usually the case.

The round is called in Ankush's favour unanimously.
