Boxing, Men's +90kg Final: Narender wins SILVER!

Narender has a mountain to climb in the final round. She looks to go all out early on in a bid to catch up, but Damar Thomas has it in control.

The Indian needs to out punch his opponent by a lot in this round, if he is to win a gold medal. 

Thomas is not making it easy for Narender. The British boxer is still going on the attack and not willing to sit back.

Narender has landed a few jabs, but has coped a few as well. With less than 20s left, I don't think he has done enough for a gold here.

He might well return with a silver medal...

Yup, he does. Narender Berwal loses unanimously. He settles for silver!

Boxing, Men's +90kg Final: Narender loses Round 2

Narender with the first punch of the second round, but Thomas is razor sharp as he retaliates.

Blows exchanged on both sides now but Thomas has been the more proactive boxer, which might sway the judges in his favour.

Narender feels a bit too casual to me, but he is evading a lot of Thomas jabs and landing his attempts.

It feels the Indian hasn't done enough here. But we wait for the judges...

Yeah, he hasn't. Loses Round 2 unanimously. 8-10 on one card even.

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

Damar Thomas with some early jabs and he connects a few as well on Narender.

The Englishman is a southpaw, which surely will cause a bit of trouble for the Indian.

Narender now settling in and lands a couple of good blows. As is the case in the higher weight categories, there is minimal movement.

Damar on a roll now, landing a combination and Narender seems to have been pushed on the backfoot. Do the judges feel the same?

They do. Narender concedes it 1-4 on split.

Boxing, Men's 80kg Final: Ankush wins GOLD

Shittu with the early aggression in the third round. Ankush evading those jabs before landing on counter.

The Indian seems to be growing in confidence with each passing second. He is covering those jabs from his opponent well.

That smirk is back on Ankush's face now as he lands heavy punches. He's looking to push forward now.

A point deduction for Shittu and this seems to be swinging in favour of the Indian. 

The bell rings and has Ankush seems to have turned it around. He has his hand up in the air as the bout ends.

He has every right to do it. The judges has scored it in his favour. Ankush Panghal is the Commonwealth Games champion with a 4-1 split win!
