In the end, it turned out to be a cause that wasn't worth fighting for. Olympic medallist Lovlina Borgohain, who had created an uproar on Twitter after her personal coach Sandhya Gurung was denied the Games accreditation to stay with her at the athletes village, crashed out of the Birmingham CWG on Thursday night after losing to Wales' Rosie Eccles in the quarterfinals of the women's boxing light middleweight category by a split decision.
Lovlina was one of India's biggest medal hopes for gold in her weight category. Her tirade against the Boxing Federation of India (BFI) over Gurung and her subsequent 'mental harassment' charge, has done the Tokyo Games bronze medallist's reputation no good, especially after the recent debacle.
