India's ace wrestler Vinesh Phogat, who was just one win away from claiming gold at the Paris Olympics 2024, was disqualified just hours ahead of the final on Wednesday. The International Olympic Committee (IOC) said that Vinesh, who was competing in the 50kg category, was found 100 grams overweight ahead of the gold medal match. While there were no issues with her weight on Tuesday, the weigh-in on Wednesday found her 100 grams over the weight limit. Olympic medalist boxer Vijender Singh was left fuming by the disqualification and he explained that 100 grams is too less a small a margin for the IOC to take such a big call. In an interview with NDTV. he also said that boxers are given extra time to cut weight if they are overweight in international competitions.
