From the start, Lopsan seemed determined and took apt advantage of his height and agility against his Indian counterpart.

Though Vijender was looking good on few occasions, it was the fourth round where Lopsan had the better of him and the former couldn’t capitalize.

After the defeat Vijender said, "Winning and losing is part of the game. It was just not my day. I always believe in working hard and I'm sure I'll make a strong comeback to the ring soon."

"It was a good fight. He is young and strong fighter. But I will surely come back stronger and beat him in Moscow," he added .

“My strategy worked against Vijender, he is a good fighter. I want to thank everyone who arranged this bout, it was a wonderful experience. I’m glad to become the first one to break the unbeaten record of Vijender Singh,” elated Lopsan said after the fight.
