No Jit bhai... he lost 3:10... we have to give it to the opponent. Our Akhil was comprehensively beaten. Let's accept this.
Let's look forward to Jitenders' and Vijenders' fights. We still have hopes to break the jinx.

Dont know about boxing much but the way Akhil was facing his opponent was the strangest I have came across. He had no guard at all almost throughout the course of the game. Anyway, well done Akhil. Better luck next time. We still have a ray of hope.
 
Bhai didnt watch the match ... but certainly it wasnt Akhil's day ... I wonder how he fell miserably to the opponenet ... but anyways part of game! ..

Akhil has shown enormous mettle ... he is a Hero! Better luck next time Champ..

Well, am very much satisfied with our Kumar Trio Boxers ... let us wish Jitender & Vijender learn from Akhil's defeat and change n adopt counter technique as according! ..

Way to go..


Rock on

The opponent had done his homework. He had studied our Akhil very well. Akhil is known for not keeping his guard while fighting; this is to tempt the opponent to attack. Akhil is quick on his feet and takes everyone by surprise by moving off the line and punching the opponent. He applied the same tactics today but instead of rushing on to him, the opponent (forgot his name... the Moldovan), waited and took time with his punches. This frustrated Akhil. First two rounds the score was 2-2. The Moldovan was strong in his defence and our Akhil could never break through. Its been said that he was unlucky to get a couple of points which the referees failed to judge and hence the gap. But then, if you ask me the gap is too big to find excuses. Today, we lost.

Akhil is a good boxer and he proved so by beating the world champion in the previous round... but then today he wasn't good. The Moldovan was better prepared. And yes, Akhil under-estimated him.

All in all, good performance by Akhil in this edition of Olympics. I wish he could get a gold... he really could have got one. He was capable.

P.S.: The above-said is my own observation.

Sahi kaha sumit
Akhil was capable to win that match. He has already proved it by beating the world champion. hard luck, main reason was underestimating the opponent and becoming too aggressive thorough out the match. opponent defended himself very cleverly and i think this was the only difference.
 
Football: Argentina thrash Brazil 3-0 in semis

Wow!!...what a match!!...awesome:)!!

Argentina ruled the field and the ball right from start. Two goals from Aguero and a late penalty from veteran Riquelme and a disallowed goal for Brazil, sealed the win for Argentina. Sad to see the talented young Brazilians kicking Argentine legs and not the ball...were rightly awarded two red cards. These young Argentines have got incredible talent. They are just too quick to catch up.

Messi reminds me of the great Maradona on field. Just like Maradona was fouled countless times in a game, so seems to be the trick to stop Messi. This boy has something in him. World may witness another Maradona if he remains fit for most part of his career. He's shown tremendous promise. His football is a treat to anyone's eyes. Simply awesome:)!!

Messi and Aguero is a deadly combo up in front...opponents need a superman... oops!! 'super-men' to stop this lethal pair. They're just toooooooooo good :)! Argentina now face Nigeria for Gold. Nigeria earlier blanked Belgium 4-0.

NEW DELHI: Delhi chief minister Sheila Dixit Wednesday announced a cash award of Rs.5 million for Olympic bronze medal winning wrestler Sushil Kumar.

"It is a great achievement for Sushil. He is the new icon for Delhi and I will give him a cash award of Rs.5 million. If he doesn't have a job I will provide him with one and if he has one he will get an out-of-turn promotion. His coach Satpal will also get promotion," Dixit told a TV channel.

Can someone confirm this about Sushil's coach Satpal... Is he the famous Satpal Sehrawat of Bawana (Heavyweight Wrestling Gold Medalist at Asian Games 1982, New Delhi)???
