Exclusive: Despite a serious injury, boxer Satish fought and won. Tokyo Olympics

Satish is the first heavyweight boxer from India to qualify for the Olympics. He was injured during his pre-quarterfinal win against Jamaica’s Ricardo Brown at the Ryogoku Kokugikan Arena. The 32-year-old was given medical clearance to fight in the quarter-finals in the morning.

Jalalov was very strong and often attacked, punching the target. Satish stayed there and counter-attacked but his opponent’s defense was too strong and thus he could not get past it. He made several attempts to score, but could not turn the result in his favor.
