Lazaro Alvarez will have to settle for a second consecutive bronze medal…

The 25-year-old Cuban amateur boxer, the reigning world champion, lost to Brazil’s Robson Conceicao in the semifinals of the Men’s Light 60 kg competition at the 2016 Rio Games.

Conceicao was down on the scorecard heading into the final 30 seconds before a flurry of punches overwhelmed Alvarez.

The Brazilian is now guaranteed an Olympic gold or silver in his third Games, while Alvarez takes bronze.

At the 2012 London Games, Alvarez beat Joseph Diaz and Robenílson Vieira but lost to Ireland’s John Joe Nevin 14-19 and won Bronze.
