The reigning world champion in her weight category bowed out of the Paris Olympics 2024 on Sunday following her 1-4 loss to China’s Li Qian in the women’s 75 kg category.

With Lovlina’s heartbreaking loss, India’s boxing campaign at the ongoing Olympics came to a medal-less end following Nishant Dev’s elimination from the men’s 71kg quarterfinals on Saturday night in a similarly closely fought contest.

It may be mentioned here that the Indian boxing contingent at the Paris Games comprised six athletes—four women and two men. Four of the six boxers were eliminated in the preliminary rounds.
