Nishant Dev in disbelief after Paris Olympics quarterfinal loss as judges accused of 'unfair scoring, 'robbing' medal

Hindustan Times  

Indian boxer Nishant Dev was left in utter disbelief after his debut Olympic campaign in Paris ended in heartbreak on Saturday, with a loss in the quarterfinal round of the men's 71kg category. India boxer Nishant Dev The 23-year-old world championship bronze medallist, who had defeated Alvarez in the 2021 World Championships, won the opening round with ease and looked in complete control of the bout in the second round as well, where he landed a streak of massive jab hooks on the Mexican, yet the judges surprisingly sided with Alvarez in that round, putting him 3-2 ahead in the tie. Nishant's 1-4 loss to the second-seed Mexican opponent in the quarterfinal at the North Paris Arena, however, did not sit well with fans on social media as they accused the judges of denying India an assured medal at the Paris Olympics. "I don't know what's the scoring system, but I think very close fight.he played so well.koi na bhai #NishantDev," Vijender wrote on X. Nishant is the fifth Indian boxer to exit the Paris Olympic Games.
