"Today my fight didn't go the way I wanted. It wasn't my day."
This was said by Azerbaijani boxer Alfonso Dominguez, who won a silver medal at the Paris 2024 Summer Olympic Games, as Idman.biz reports.
The athlete, who climbed to the second step of the podium in 92 kg weight class, said that he analyzed his opponent in the final, Lazizbek Mullojonov, from Uzbekistan. He admitted that his tactics did not work: "I lost because I didn't get what I wanted in the ring. That's why I couldn't win the gold medal. My opponent was also very strong. I thought I would do more in the fight. Unfortunately, it didn't work out. My opponent was more concentrated and won. I had analyzed the opponent before the fight. Although the opponent is strong, I had set up my own tactics.
Saying that he already has silver and bronze awards in his collection, Dominguez emphasized that he wishes to complete his set of medals with gold at Los Angeles 2028: "There can be no excuses for my defeat. I have never looked for excuses. I am an athlete who accepts the result as it is when I lose. There was no pressure. I made history. I am happy for the medal in Los Angeles 2028 I will work for the championship. Of course, I was lucky to win a silver medal.
Loren, who was second in the French capital, won a bronze medal in Tokyo 2020.
