Guwahati, November 19 

The AIBA Women’s Youth Boxing Championships got off to a colourful start here today. No Indian featured in the opening day’s bouts but it turned out to be an eventful day. The first day witnessed some upsets with New Zealand’s Waikai Shylah and England’s Chloe Watson crashing out in the first round.

Waikai, who trains in Australia but represents New Zealand, started off well against Australia’s Heibloem Indianna before losing by a close 2-3 margin in the 51kg light flyweight category.

The same script followed in another light flyweight division bout as Chloe fought hard before being stunned by an identical margin by Thailand’s Nampai Kittiya.

In another light flyweight bout, Ukraine’s Lisinska Anastasiia looked impressive against Germany’s Hoffman Charlotte to register a comfortable 4-1 win. — PTI
