Any update for the results of Boxing Asian qualifiers today?

 

In 52kg, Gaurav Bidhuri lost to Japanese boxer while in 69kg, Mandeep Jangra lost to Thai boxer

 

Comfortable wins for Laishram Devendro Singh (46-49kg), Shiva Thapa (-56kg)

 

Boxers qualified for QF (29th March - Noon session starts at 11:30 IST & Evening session starts at 16:30 IST)

Men's 46-49kg: Laishram Devendro Singh vs :TPE tomorrow evening. Devendro should win comfortably

Men's 56kg: Shiva Thapa vs :JPN tomorrow evening. Shiva should win comfortably

Men's 60kg: Dheeraj Rangi vs :PHI tomorrow noon. Tough match. Don't expect him to pull off a surprise

Men's 91kg: Parveen Kumar vs :AUS tomorrow evening. Tough to predict. Aussie is the slight favourite

Women's 51kg: Mary Kom vs :PHI tomorrow noon. Should be an easy win for Mary Kom

Women's 60kg: Laishram Sarita Devi vs :VIE tomorrow noon. Vietnam boxer is the favourite as per the rankings. But Sarita was banned for a long period which might have affected her ranking. So I am expecting Sarita to win comfortably

 

 

PS: AIBA is the most corrupted sports body in the world & hence anything can happen. Hence I kindly request everyone not to scrutinize my predictions :p

For the first time in 10 years, there will be a World Championship without Anand, who has won the crown as many as five times :(

    • Not to the public until end of Wednesday, entry deadline is under 5 hours from now. Gonna see if I can persuade a couple more to join, like our Uruguayan friend who said he would be able to join due to time but now might be able to with the short turn around.

    • What can you expect from a simple woman from Magadan? As long as she was just running around and not talking, it was okay, but since she became an head of the federation in Rus and started talking this nonsense, it turned out that she was empty-headed. On top of that, she's fat as a pig. Disgusting person inside and out.
    • Rather negative     Both towards Vollering and towards the coach, who has been making a mess of this for years now (like Tokyo). Vollering literally said "it was not good for me that Markus and Vos were still in the front towards the end"     One of the most well-known journalists (albeit a bit of a drama queen, but in this case, he's right): "Absurdly bad race by Vollering. Unbelievable."   An entire analysis titled "Vollering only thought of herself and threw away and almost certain Dutch medal": https://www.wielerflits.nl/nieuws/demi-vollering-dacht-alleen-aan-zichzelf-en-verspeelt-vrijwel-zekere-wk-medaille-voor-nederland/   Vollering: "They were all riding just to make me lose"   https://www.gelderlander.nl/video/productie/vollering-mij-laten-verliezen-wk-zurich-772648?referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2F   The 100th time Vollering shows she should simply not be in a team like this. It is always trouble, every single time. We need a team with like 6 Marianne Vos clones, she has the experience, she can read a race like absolutely nobody else in the world can and she plays her role, whether that's the team captain or working for someone else, without complaining and to the fullest extent.   Vollering is the exact opposite of Vos. Vollering rides for Team Vollering, which consists of Demi Vollering. No matter what.
    • What did Dutch press make out of it? It was one of the worst "teamworks" I have ever seen in cycling.
    • There is a ton of evidence, even if you don't believe the Bible is real,  that israel is our ancestral land.  And we simply took what's ours.  And in fact there was never anyone named Palestinians there.   Simply a name given to the region by the Roman's.  But the actual people is just a collective of individuals from different Arab countries where they were kicked out from.  And we are expected to cater to them.   There are plenty of other countries that should take them.   Iran, qatar, Iraq, Kuwait, Yemen, Algeria,  libiya, Egypt, Tunisia, Morocco to name a few.
