Asian Games: Winning Medal Was Not The Main Aim, Says Boxer Lovlina After Losing Final
MC Mary Kom: India's Olympic bronze medallist Lovlina Borgohain did her best against a stronger opponent, losing to China's Li Qian in the final of the women's 75 kg boxing event in the Asian Games here on Wednesday.
Lovlina, who had stormed into the final by beating Thailand's M. Baison in the semifinal, found the going tough against the Chinese boxer, who was quicker on her feet and had a strong defence. Her opponent is the silver medallist in Tokyo Olympics and had bagged bronze in 2016 in Rio Olympics.
The Indian tried her best but her opponent, egged on by a partisan crowd, did not allow Lovlina many chances and the Indian went down 0-5 to Li Qian, losing on points on the cards of the majority of five judges.
