NEW DELHI: Shiva Thapa’s run at the World Championship in Doha was on Sunday halted by Uzbekistan’s Murodjon Akhmadaliev. The Uzbek, who upset top seed K Yeraliyev of Kazakhstan in the second round, won 3-0 on points in a closely-fought 56kg semifinal as the Indian settled for a bronze.
Shiva, who became only the third Indian pugilist to win a medal at the World Championship, will now compete against Belarus’ Dzmitry Asanau, who lost to Ireland’s Michael Conlan 0-3, for Olympic quota on Tuesday.read more....http://www.vishwagujarat.com/sports/shiva-thapa-settles-for-bronze-in-doha/
