Gyula Kate battles past Eslam Mohamed

Hungary's Gyula Kate has dumped Egyptian light-welterweight Eslam Mohamed out of London 2012 with a solid six-point victory.

A close first round ended with Mohamed in the lead by a single point, which only spurred Kate to come out even more aggressively in the second.

The Hungarian bounced on his toes menacingly before launching a massive left that caught Mohamed square on the jaw.

Kate pumped in a jab, followed by another swift right, to turn the scores around and take a two-point lead.

Mohamed boxed nicely in the final round but could not change the outcome, falling to a 16-10 defeat.
