Russia's Nadezda Torlopova has scored a 10-point victory over Edith Okoge of Nigeria to grab the last semi-final spot in the women's middleweight division.
There was nothing between the two fighters in the first round. Ogoke threw more punches, while the Russian waited for a decent opening.
The Nigerian bombed forward in the second forward as Torlopova continued to move and pick her shots well.
It was the Russian who took a six-point lead after two rounds that were fairly even. Torlopova's superior accuracy saw her stretch that lead to 14-6.
Ogoke continued to bound forward in the final two minutes but bowed out of the competition thanks to a 18-8 scoreline.
