The Perils of not having Access to TV!
The bout between Vijendra and Emilio Correa is about to begin and I can't watch it. I will be updating the Beijing Olympics' Official Website to see the results. As of now the previous bout is running. And on papers Correa looks stronger, he is the Pan American champion for the year 2005 and 2008 and was third in the world championship in 2005.
Vijendra on the other hand 17th in Athens 2004, 17th in World Championship in 2007 and 2nd in Asian Championship in 2007 (all data for both the players comes from their biographies on the Beijing Olympics site, link in the first line of the post).
But then that is just on papers. Who knows, what will actually happen today!
Ah, the bout has started and I can't know the scores, maybe I should call home!
Oh well, the young lad lost 5:8. I hope there would be at least two more Olympics for him and congratulations on another Bronze.

That's a job well done!
However, there, obviously, are no guarantees for the future. Look at the way Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore failed to even qualify for the finals, let alone win a medal.
Sidhu, that is a very valid point! I entirely agree.
