Making full use of his height he dominated the proceedings though out the bout, never allowing Saleh to play his natural game. By the end of the final round Manoj, a silver medallist at the recently concluded Limassol Boxing Cup in Cyprus, had the clear advantage with fatigue setting in the Jordanian boxer. Kumar advanced into the round of 16 with victory by virtue of a unanimous decision.
