Brazil's Esquiva Falcao Florentino has beaten Hungary's Zoltan Harcsa by four points to advance to the last four of the Olympic middleweight class.
Falcao made a slow start to the contest, but soon settled into his rhythm. The Brazilian displayed some frightening hand speed to establish a four-point cushion.
The Brazilian took full control from the second round and was beating Harcsa to the punch on every occasion, adding another point to his lead.
Harcsa found another gear in the third round but was still being caught by Falcao as he came inside.
In the end, the judges awarded the Brazilian a 14-10 decision.
