The final punch that Sachin Siwach threw in the 60kg boxing final was worth its weight in gold. The 25-year-old southpaw from Bhiwani leapt up and launched a huge overhead right hook that shook Tryagain Morning Ndevelo — the Namibian was rocked and he staggered and tried to grab the ropes. That punch decided the fate of the 60kg boxing final — the referee gave Ndevelo a standing count and after that, gold wasn’t going anywhere but Bhiwani, from where Siwach comes.

When the referee resumed the bout, the final bell went off almost immediately, and Tryagain was left with no time to try again what had worked for him in the first round.
