Indian protest

INDIA have complained to the Court of Arbitration for Sport after an Olympic victory by welterweight boxer Vikas Krishan was overturned, costing him a place in the quarterfinals. World amateur bronze medalist Krishan originally won the bout against Errol Spence 13-11 but, after reviewing video footage, the International Boxing Association declared the American the winner. "We have submitted a preliminary complaint in writing to the CAS," the Indian team's acting chef de mission PKM Raja said in a statement. India has been vocal against the judging in London and the country's light-welterweight boxer Manoj Kumar accused the judges of "cheating" after he lost Saturday night's bout against Briton Thomas Stalker.
