Boxer earns Tuvalu's first Commonwealth Games medal despite losing her only bout‎

A boxer from Tuvalu earned her tiny South Pacific nation's first ever Commonwealth Games medal without winning a fight on Friday. Tarona Taafaki lost her only bout in the women’s 75-kilogram class to India's Lovlina Borgohain, losing every round on all three of the judges' cards. Because there were only five entrants, Taafaki received a bye to the last four, meaning she was automatically guaranteed at least a bronze medal.
