Vikas Krishan Yadav
Vikas Krishan was one of the lone bright lights for India in boxing, winning two bouts before bowing out in the quarterfinals to Bektemir Melikuziev of Uzbekistan. He provided plenty of entertainment for Indian fans in his first two rounds, and was one win away from becoming only the third Indian boxer to ever win an Olympics medal.
Vikas is just 24, and his compsoure on the big stage is a big plus for his future. While the Indian boxing association may be in a mess, Vikas made his performance speak for itself, and his quarterfinal appearance was beyond the expectations of even the most optimistic Indian fan.
The way he’s gone about his business, Vikas could well win a medal in Tokyo!
