Second Session
Women’s 54kg (Bantamweight) - Round of 32
Hatice Akbas (Turkey) def. Charley Davison (Great Britain), 3-2: Good, competitive fight. Akbas deserved the first, Davison probably deserved the second, and then the third could have gone either way. But the cleaner work was Akbas, really, and that probably tipped it for her.
Enkhjargal Munguntsetseg (Mongolia) def. Sirine Charaabi (Italy), 5-0: Munguntsetseg had a real come-forward style, and that gave Charaabi fits. The Italian lost two points in the second round for holding, but she simply lost the fight either way.
Preeti (India) def. Thi Kim Anh (Vietnam), 5-0: More competitive than “Preeti won all five cards” might make it seem, also not one of the better fights of the day, let’s leave it at that.
Women’s 60kg (Lightweight) - Round of 32
Alessia Mesiano (Italy) vs Gizem Ozer (Turkey), 4-1
Jajaira Gonzalez (United States) def, Estelle Mossely (France), 4-0-1: Big win for Team USA to get their Olympic boxing campaign started. Mossely had great fan support in Paris as a 2016 gold medalist and fake world champion in the pro ranks, but that didn’t sway the judges, who rightly saw that Gonzalez was the better boxer.
Men’s 63.5kg (Lightweight) - Round of 32
Erislandy Alvarez (Cuba) def. John Ume (Papua New Guinea), RSC-2: Ume came in on short notice to replace someone else, and he was just nowhere near the Cuban’s class. He tried, but Alvarez is a medal favorite for a reason. Ume got a nice applause, including Alvarez, for a sincere effort against a huge skill gap.
Kaan Aykutsun (Turkey) def. Salvatore Cavallaro (Italy), 4-1: Aykutsun is pretty fun to watch, has a personality to how he fights.
First Session
Women’s 54kg (Bantamweight) - Round of 32
Huang Hsiao-wen (Chinese Taipei) def. Bojana Gojkovic (Montenegro), 5-0: Huang won bronze in Tokyo and looked sharp again here, but Gojkovic gave this a strong effort in defeat to kick off the boxing in Paris.
Jutamas Jitpong (Thailand) def. Sara Cirkovic (Serbia), 4-1: I’m guessing we’ll see Cirkovic, 20, back at the Olympics if we still have boxing for 2028, she can clearly box, but Jitpong — a flyweight quarterfinalist in Tokyo — had the experience edge and it proved out in this matchup.
Nigina Uktamova (Uzbekistan) def. Yomna Ayyad (Egypt): A walkover win to advance Uktamova to the next round.
Women’s 60kg (Lightweight) - Round of 32
Thi Linh Ha (Vietnam) def. Feofaaki Epenisa (Tonga), 5-0: Linh was just the better boxer. Epenisa tried her best to find her way into it throughout, but Linh has medal aspirations.
Maria Jose Palacios (Ecuador) def. Agnes Alexiusson (Sweden), 4-1: Split decision, and a rally win for Palacios. Alexiusson won the first round on every card, but Palacios turned it around and took four of the five cards in the end. Competitive and a good style clash.
Wu Shih-yi (Chinese Taipei) def. Oh Yeonji (South Korea), 5-0: Competitive first round, but Wu pretty well took over from there.
Men’s 63.5kg (Lightweight) - Round of 32
Radoslav Rosenov (Bulgaria) def. Bakhodur Usmonov (Tajikistan), 5-0: Excellent performance, but he did suffer a cut that could be a problem going forward. He faces Canada’s Wyatt Sanford, the “top seed,” next, as long as the cut passes a check. Really interesting matchup.
Obada Alkasbeh (Jordan) vs Dean Clancy (Ireland), 3-2: Alkasbeh won it despite a point deduction in the third round, which was a fair call by the ref. The younger Clancy scrapped hard here, but Alkasbeh finally gets a win in his third Olympics appearance, going one-and-done in Rio and Tokyo.
Men’s 80kg (Light Heavyweight) - Round of 32
Cristian Pinales (Dominican Republic) def. Weerapon Jongjoho (Thailand), 5-0: The widest win of the session and a fairly easy one for Pinales.
