Talking about Boxing Akhil Kumar won Men's Bantam (54kg) Round of 16 and now he is in quarterfinals. This is indeed a big achievement.http://afp.google.com/article/ALeqM5hFCOQ9yj28XWMBcPZ2hsK0431IFQ
"BEIJING (Reuters) - Surprise package Akhil Kumar celebrated India's Independence Day by moving a win away from giving his country its first Olympic boxing medal on Friday.
After outboxing 2005 world silver medallist Ali Hallab of France in the first round, Kumar sent home Russia's world champion Sergey Vodopyanov, who was the favourite in the bantamweight class."
"I don't want silver or bronze," he warned. "Gold is my only target."
Bravo Akhil......I don't care about a medal....actually (honestly) I do..... but really that statement..... you are a winner dude....yeeeeeahhhhh
