Most interesting fight tomorrow is in the women's 60kg class.

Potkonen of Finland, Rio bronze medallist but now 40 years old, versus Dubois of Britain, a 20 year old who has never lost and has won all 6 major World, European and Youth Olympic events she has entered at junior level

British experts reckon she could be as good as any female boxer since Shields of the USA and Taylor of Ireland. Of course if she loses that will mean nothing.

Looking through the revised draw sheets there are about 6/7 athletes who fought and won in 2020 and who haven't returned for 2021

 

Perhaps most interestingly the experienced professional Mateusz Masternak from :POL hasn't returned so second seed Radoslav Pantaleev from :BUL receives his second bye (first was due to seeding) and may qualify for Olympics with only one win. He too is an experienced professional but won bronze at the 2019 AIBA World Championships

Masternak had a professional title fight last weekend
