3 August 2021: Sudaporn Seesondee became the first Thai female boxer to secure an Olympic medal after she narrowly ousted 2018 Youth Olympics gold medalist, Caroline Dubois of Great Britain, 3-2 in the women’s 60kg quarter-finals at the Kokugikan Arena on Tuesday.

 

The Thailand boxing team’s last hope did not let the fans down, producing strategically delivered punches and jabs to edge out the up-and-coming Briton in the third round, after tying at 1-1 in the first two, to reach the semi-finals.

 

At least a bronze is guaranteed for the 29-year-old Thai, who will go down in history as the first Olympic medalist in women’s boxing from Thailand.

Watched it was close. Good fight 

[Joe Farang]

She's fighting Ireland's Kellie Harrington in the next match.

Meself and Wifey will have to take different corners that night and come out swinging.

But then again she'll more than likely go to bed and say she has no interest in the fight.
