Boxing: Bitter London lesson drives Yadav on path to Rio (Reuters)

By Amlan Chakraborty NEW DELHI (Reuters) – Vikas Krishan Yadav has learned from the bitterest experience that he can leave nothing to chance in the Olympic ring and it is a lesson the Indian boxer will carry with him to the Rio Games. Four years ago, the then 20-year-old welterweight thought he had clinched a place in the quarter-finals of the London Olympic tournament after beating American Errol Spence 13-11. India subsequently took the case to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), which rejected the appeal.
