Adem Kilicci advances to quarter-finals

Turkey's Adem Kilicci has advanced to the quarter-finals of the middleweight tournament at the expense of Serbia's Aleksandar Drenovak.

The Turk punished Drenovak for some ragged punching in the first round with a few swift counters to take a 5-2 lead.

Drenovak was more adventurous in the second stanza, but Kilicci was keeping the fight at long range and still racking up the points.

Kilicci took a nine-point lead into the decider and, despite having to withstand some pressure, closed out a comfortable 20-11 victory.
