After Lovlina Borgohain’s exploits in the welterweight category, the limelight will now be on Pooja Rani as she takes on Rio Olympics 2016 Bronze medallist Li Qian. Both pugilists are just one win away from confirming a medal for their respective countries.

The bout will be a challenging one for the Indian pugilist as Li Qian has had the better of Rani in recent times. The 30-year old lost to her Chinese counterpart 5:0 in the Olympic Qualification Tournament last year. Prior to that, the 31-year old Qian reigned over the Haryana-born pugilist, securing a 2:0 win in the Semi-Finals of the 2014 Asian Games.

Pooja Rani shattered the myth that Indian boxers struggle in the heavier weight categories as she secured a resounding 5:0 win over Alegrian boxer Ichrak Chaib in the Round of 16 bout. Similarly, Li Qian, who is one of the favourites to win Gold, crushed Ireland’s Aoife O’ Rourke 5:0 to book a Quarter-Final berth.

As the 2021 Asian Championship Gold winner aims for a podium finish, it will be interesting to see how she goes about in her bout against third-ranked Qian. So sit back, relax and enjoy as we bring to you all the live action that unfolds over the course of this bout! Load More
