The Indian boxer defeated Norway's Sunniva Hofstad 5:0. Borgohain, a 69 kg bronze medalist at Tokyo 2020, is seeded eighth in her first 75 kg Olympic tournament. Making her Summer Games debut, the 20-year-old Hofstad adopted an aggressive approach in the first two rounds. However, Lovlina was resolute in defence. The Norwegian boxer improved in the third round but it wasn't enough to outscore the reigning Asian Games silver medalist.
