India's Nishant Gets One Step Closer To Paris 2024 Quota, Advances To Quarters At 1st World Olympic Boxing Qualifier
World Olympic Boxing Qualifier: 2023 World Championships bronze medallist Nishant Dev registered a convincing 5-0 win over Christos Karaitis of Greece to enter the men’s 71kg quarter-finals at the 1st World Olympic Boxing Qualifier, here.
Nishant is now just a win away from confirming his place at the upcoming 2024 Paris Olympic Games with the ongoing qualifying tournament offering quotas for all four semi-finalists in the men's event.
Continuing his dominating form, Nishant began the bout cautiously as Karaitis looked to secure some early points but not for long as the Indian found his rhythm and delivered some good combinations to secure points by using his speed to his advantage. Nishant looked super effective on the counter attacks and picked up the pace in the closing seconds of the first round to win it comfortably.
