Despite nishant dev

Jose Gabriel Tenorio Rodriguez: Despite Nishant Dev's quarterfinal loss in the Men’s 71 kg boxing bout at the Paris Olympics, his personal coach Surendra Chauhan said it was heartbreaking, but he remained optimistic, confidently declaring that they will bring home gold at the Los Angeles Olympics in 2028.

Nishant was eliminated by Marco Verde Alvarez after judges' decision 1-4 went in favour of the Mexican in the quarterfinals on Saturday night (local time).

The bout started on a fiery note with Alvarez coming swinging out of the blocks and Nishant on the defensive for most of the opening round but strategic body blows gave Nishant the 4-1 advantage in the first round.
