Related Topics: Brazil, Gold medal, Boxing

A wild and noisy crowd greeted the men's light 60-kilogram boxing category final at the 2016 Rio Games on Tuesday as Robson Conceicao of Brazil defeated Sofiane Oumiha of France for the gold medal.

Conceicao was victorious on points by unanimous decision as he dominated the opening two rounds with speed, power and precision at the Riocentro, Pavilion 6.

Even with Oumiha's obvious talents, he couldn't land a clean shot on his opponent's chin, and despite a spirited finish, he was second best.

Cuba's Lazaro Jorge Alvarez and Otgondalai Dorjnyambuu of Mongolia claimed bronze medals in the class.
