Beijing, August 9
India had a mixed day in boxing with Vijender Singh living up to the hype build around him as he outpunched Gambia's Jack Badou 13-2 to move into the second round of the 75 kg (middle weight), while in the 81 kg category Dinesh Kumar suffered a humiliating defeat when referee stopped the contest to save the Indian from further thrashing at the hands of Algeria's Abdelhafid in the Olympic Boxing competition here today.
The emphatic win enabled Vijender, the handsome Bhiwani (Haryana) boxer erase the memories of a first round defeat in the 2004 Athens Olympics.
But it was a nightmarish debut for Vijender's compatriot Dinesh Kumar who will be haunted by the beating he received at the hands of Abdelhafid for a long time to come.
The 75 kg bout turned out to be a mismatch and even Vijender later admitted that he never expected it to be so easy. ''It was interesting but the opponent was not that tough,'' he told mediapersons after his win.
The Indian took his time to understand his rival's plan and then landed the first punch after 115 seconds to go up 1-0 in the first round.
It was an aggressive Vijender who fisted his way into the second round as the Gambian scurried for cover. The Indian punched him with fierce right hooks and upper cuts to take five points while conceding just one.
Having established a 6-1 lead, there was no stopping the Indian as he unleashed flurry of hooks on the hapless Gambian. Vijender hit him all over and but could manage only three points and again conceded one in the third. To take his tally to 9-2.
The last round was easy for the Indian who collected four more points to win the bout 13-2.
''I enjoyed the bout. To win the first round is a good feeling,'' he said adding he was expecting better opposition and challenge from his rival with whom he was boxing for the first time.
Vijender's next bout rival is Thailand's Angkhan Chomphuphuang to whom Indian had lost in the President Cup held in Chinese Taipei in April.
''I am looking forward to the bout. It is going to be a revenge fight,'' he said when asked about his next round rival.
The bout in the 81 kg event was a total mismatch with Abdelhafid landing punches on Dinesh Kumar at will. The Indian neither had the tactics nor the stamina to stand up to his rival and simply turned out to be a pnching back.
Abdelhafid raced to a 9-3 lead in the first round and added six more points in the second to make it 15-3 as the Indian ran all over the ring trying to avoid getting punished. — UNI:boxing

Phelps opens with Olympic record

He is playing like a true champ and has epitomized success brilliantly.
He reminds me of the Ukrainian Pole vaulting legend, Sergey Bubka, who would break his own world record and make a new one again and again. He did so as many as 35 times. Hopefully, Phelps might be able to break or even emulate Mark Spitz swimming record.
Abhinav won the Gold medal
अभिनव ने इतिहास रचा, भारत को स्वर्ण पदक
बीजिंग। भारतीय निशानेबाज अभिनव बिंद्रा ने 10 मीटर एयर राइफल शूटिंग प्रतियोगिता में पहला व्यक्तिगत स्वर्ण पदक जीतकर ओलंपिक में इतिहास रच दिया है। इस जीत के साथ ही अभिनव बिन्द्रा व्यक्तिगत स्वर्ण पदक जीतने वाले पहले भारतीय बन गए हैं। विश्व चैम्पियन अभिनव ने सोमवार को 10 मीटर रायफल शूटिंग प्रतियोगिता के लिए क्वॉलिफाई किया था। अभिनव की जीत पर प्रधानमंत्री मनमोहन सिंह और राष्ट्रपति प्रतिभा पाटील ने बधाईदी है। पूरे देश में खुशी की लहर है और लोग एक दूसरे को शुभकामनाएं दे रहे हैं।
हालांकि, भारत के ही गगन नारंग इसी प्रतियोगिता के फाइनल में प्रवेश करने से चूक गए थे। वह 600 में से 595 अंक जुटाकर प्रतियोगिता में नौवें स्थान पर रहे। नारंग ने 97 100 100 98 100 के राउंड खेले।
वहीं, खेल रत्न से सम्मानित बिंद्रा क्वॉलिफाइंग राउंड में चौथे स्थान पर रहे थे। उन्होंने 596 अंक के साथ फाइनल के लिए क्वॉलिफाई किया था। उन्होंने 100 99 100 98 100 और 99 के राउंड खेले।
India and Israel (Hindus & Jews) are true friends in this World. Both are Long Live and yes also both have survived and surviving under adverse conditions.
After so many years i m not sure, but because of Abhinav Bindra India tasted its first gold medal in olympics. Good on him.
Really a happy day for Indian Sports.
Thanks to Nisha Rathee who sent me an email to let me know about this.
