Cuba experienced a day of negative surprises at the World Boxing Championship in Belgrade, Serbia
Havana, October 28 (JIT)-- Cuba experienced a day of negative surprises at the World Boxing Championship in Belgrade, Serbia, where Herich Ruiz made a successful debut and the consecrated Roniel Iglesias and Lazaro Alvarez suffered setbacks.
Ruiz (86 kg) celebrated a happy debut in those contests, when he made the host Slobodan Jovanovic quit, whom he clearly led until the trainers present in his corner prevented him from starting the third round.
But the third day of the competition also saw the eliminations of Iglesias (71 kg) and Lázaro (60 kg), the former after a little more than a minute of the opening round, when an injury in the right superciliary arch conditioned the stoppage of the fight.
Then the judges considered that the Jordanian Zeyad Eashash had had a better start and assigned him a success beyond expectations, which became headline news in his country, which applauds knowing that he was the victim of a double Olympic champion.
Equally unimaginative was the fact that Japan's Hayato Tsutsumi had enough to close with a 5-0 decision at the expense of Lazaro, a three-time gold medalist in world competitions who did not show the best of his class.
Now the win-loss record of the Rolando Acebal-led squad stands at 5-2, with six men in competition, including Osvel Caballero (57 kg) and Kevin Brown (67 kg), opponents this Thursday of Iran's Sajad Mohammadpour and Shain Boniface of the Seychelles, respectively.
