After Mirabai Chanu's silver on Day 1, India has had a string of mixed results at the Olympics 2021. However, boxer Lovlina Borgohain's round of 16 win on Tuesday has given Indian fans an occasion to rejoice. Borgohain defeated Germany's Nadine Apetz 3-2 to reach the quarterfinals of the women's welterweight category.
