Boxing, Men's +90kg: Narender loses Round 1

The usual sluggish boxing we usually see in the higher weight categories. Both pugilists rooted to their feet, barely moving around.

A few punches landed by both. Narender has been good on the counter, in particular.

A lot of support for Aibek. The chants of "Kazakhstan, Kazakhstan" hasn't stopped since he stepped onto the ring.

It feels like the pressure of it all is getting to Narender, who was on the backfoot, it felt.

Yup, as expected, Narender's counters not enough. He concedes the first round unanimously 0-5.
