Another boxing disaster hits Nigerian camp in Paris as Olaore loses to Oralbay Aibek

Team Nigeria’s run of losses at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris continued on Sunday morning with boxer Olaitan Olaore crashing out of the men’s 92kg heavyweight event.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Olaore lost 0-5 to Kazakhstan’s Oralbay Aibek to add to his team’s misery which had begun on Wednesday in Bordeaux.

Aibek was really in command of the round of 16 bout at the North Paris Arena, winning all three rounds on all the five judges’ cards.

Olaore joins the Team Nigeria which sidelines Cynthia Ogunsemilore, who was disqualified after failing a doping test, and Dolapo Omole who was ruled out due to injury.
