London: India’s top boxer Vijender Singh kept his reputation as a strong medal contender intact by sailing into the middleweight (75kg) pre-quarter finals in the Olympics with a comfortable win over Kazakhstan’s Danabek Sukhanov here.
The 26-year-old, a bronze-medallist in the Beijing Games four years ago, was a trifle cautious in the first round, preferring to gauge his opponent’s strategy but opened up subsequently to carve out a comfortable 14-10 verdict late last night.
