Tokyo Olympics Boxing LIVE – Satish Kumar vs Ricardo Brown LIVE: The pugilist from Bulandshahr in Uttar Pradesh has previously tasted success at the international level with a bronze medal at the 2014 Asian Games and the Silver at the 2018 Commonwealth Games but will be aiming to add another to his tally in his maiden Olympics appearance. While a podium finish might be too much to expect from the 32-year-old in his maiden Olympics, Kumar could well pull off a surprise or two, starting on Thursday.

His opponent Brown himself is a history maker, having become the first Jamaican to don the gloves since the 1996 Olympics. At 31, Brown is also an Olympic debutant and it promises to be a fascinating contest to watch as he and Satish Kumar go through the rounds in Tokyo.
