Lovlina Borgohain, 26, loves a good fight. And on Wednesday, she threw all she had at China’s Li Qian, 33, in the final of the women’s 75kg bout at the Hangzhou Gymnasium here. Unfortunately, the Chinese pugilist used all her experience and got a unanimous 5-0 verdict to emerge victorious amidst some vociferous crowd support. Borgohain and Li Qian are both reputed and accomplished boxers. While Tokyo Olympics bronze medal-winning Borgohain is also the reigning world champion, Qian is a two-time Olympic medallist and three-time World Championship medallist.
