Tokyo/IBNS: India's Boxing medal hope in Women's Fly Weight Category crashed out of Tokyo Olympics after losing to Columbia's Ingrit Lorena Victoria Valencia on Thursday.

The London Olympics bronze medalist lost to Valencia 3-2 in a split decision.

The contest was a close one but the Columbian southpaw managed to remain confident in her attack, managing accurate punches to score points against Mary Kom.

Mary Kom dodged several of Valencia's jabs but couldn't land many on the target to outplay her.
