Having kicked up a storm after alleging “mental harassment” over her personal coach Sandhya Gurung not getting the right accreditation to be with her during practice, Tokyo Olympic Games bronze medallist Lovlina Borgohain will step into the ring at the National Exhibition Centre here on Saturday, hoping to put her focus back into competition mode following the disruption.
Lovlina’s post on social media had stirred up a Hornet’s nest and forced the Indian Olympic Association (IOA) to take away the accreditation of the team’s doctor and hand Sandhya Gurung the opportunity to be with her ward and help her prepare for her first bout.
Now it is the time for the 25-year-old pugilist from Assam to perform in the ring.
Lovlina will open her campaign in a Round-of-16 bout against Ariane Nicholson of New Zealand in the women’s over 66kg-70kg (light middle weight) division on Saturday.
