Boxing, Women's 60kg: Priya Ghanghas WINSSS!
This contest is now on a knife's edge. Priya continues to attack. Mitchell continues to run around. Fun battle this.

There's the final bell. I can't really say for certain who takes this.

Similar start to the second round with Priya eager to pack a punch. Mitchell keeps her distance before landing blows on counter.

All to play for in the final round.

Boxing, Women's 60kg: Priya loses Round 1 via a split decision
Priya on it right away, searching for that big backhand early on. She seems to have a clear agenda, go all out.
But Mitchell is playing it smart. She's staying out of the Indian's reach, forcing her to stretch full length to land her punches.
Priya wants to go all out, while Mitchell wants to slow it down. Two completely opposite strategies on display as the Scottish boxers keeps running around the ring before occasionally landing punches.
A very weird three minutes that. Who's done enough?
Niamh Mitchell, it is!
