Rocky start for team Botswana in Tokyo

Kenosi was eliminated in the preliminary stage by Karriss Artingestall of Great Britain. The British won the women’s featherweight division (54kg-57kg) through unanimous decision.

Artingestall stepped into the ring boasting of more experience than Kenosi and she was a favourite. However, Kenosi tried her best with some attacks, which included some good work to the body. Despite that, her punches did not carry power as one would expect. At one moment, the bout was stopped to give Kenosi a chance to tie her shoe lace.
