Sayat Ilyasov suffers an unexpected defeat at the international tournament in Thailand!

As is known, on May 24, a prestigious international boxing tournament began in the capital of Thailand, Bangkok. This tournament will continue until June 1, and the strongest boxing masters from different countries of the world are competing for victory.

Today was also rich in important matches for our compatriots. In particular, in the quarterfinal stage of the tournament, our compatriot Sayat Ilyasov entered the ring in the -65 kg weight category and fought against the host country's representative, Thai boxer Pidnuch Hunathip.

Both boxers entered the ring with high spirits and the desire to win. From the very beginning of the match, Ilyasov tried to put pressure on his opponent with aggressive actions. However, the Thai opponent also acted confidently and responded to every strike without fear.

During the match, Ilyasov delivered several effective blows, trying to weaken his opponent. At the same time, the host athlete Hunathip was also active in the ring and successfully countered the attacks of our compatriot. The match proceeded intensely, uncompromisingly, and interestingly over the course of three rounds.

The final decision of the judges turned out to be somewhat unexpected for many. After the complex three-round match, the victory on points was awarded to the host country’s representative, Pidnuch Hunathip. Thus, Sayat Ilyasov was forced to give up his hopes of winning this tournament.

The defeat of Uzbek boxer Sayat Ilyasov became sad news for our people, but this is sport — where victory and defeat go side by side. We hope that today’s loss will be a push for Ilyasov to come back stronger and more experienced.

Let us remind you that later today another of our leather-glove masters — the talented Samandar Jalolov — will step into the ring. He will face South Korean Kim Minseong in the quarterfinals. All fans are looking forward to Samandar’s victory in this match.

Team Uzbekistan aims to achieve bright results and secure top positions in this tournament. So far, our athletes have actively participated in all days of the competition and have recorded high results.

Fans also have great expectations for the remaining participants and are waiting for nothing but victory. Every fight is important, and every victory plays a big role in raising our country's prestige.

The fight of Samandar Jalolov may also open new opportunities for Uzbek fans. Everyone is curious about the result of today’s bout.

We, for our part, wish our compatriots victory in the remaining matches. We have no doubt that they will worthily defend the honor of our country in the boxing ring. Good luck, Uzbekistan!
