Hagag loses
Austria’s boxers will not be at the Olympics in Paris
Austria's boxers will not be represented at the Olympic Games in Paris. The promising Ahmed Hagag lost on points to the Spanish European champion Ayoub El-Aissaou at the final qualifying tournament in Bangkok on Sunday after two victories in the decisive fight in the over 92 kg category.
Three of his compatriots had already been eliminated in Thailand around a week earlier.
Hagag went into the duel with El-Aissaou with a head-to-head of 1:2, and was quite offensive. The 24-year-old also won the first of three rounds, but his Iberian opponent was slightly ahead after the second. In the final round, the Upper Austrian placed some good punches, but after an attack he suffered a counterattack and had to go down briefly. Hagag was unable to make up the resulting points deficit. Only one of the five judges ultimately had the super heavyweight ahead.
