stage of the championships.
In the 50kg division, the Newham ABC prospect clashed with
high-standard Ukraine rival Ruslan Struk.

opening bout at the event, which has attracted outstanding youngsters

by talented Armenian competitor Narek Abgary.
The Armenian finished with an 18-9 points' verdict on the official
scorecards.
