People watching the bout between Vijender Singh and Zulipikaer Maimaitiali must have had their hearts in their mouth towards the end of the fight, given that the younger and more energetic Chinese puglist seemed to have the upper hand. However, Indian fans erupted when the referees unanimously announced Vijender Singh as the winner by five points.
