Beating an Olympic champion for two consecutive times is no mean feat but Indian boxer Amit Panghal says it's no big deal either as Uzbek 'golden boy' Hasanboy Dusmatov is now a "bit scared of him".
Panghal defeated Rio Olympic champion Dusmatov for the first time in September last year, the stage being the Asian Games finale in Jakarta.
He repeated the feat at the Asian Championships, ousting him from medal contention altogether with a quarterfinal win in the event which concluded in Bangkok last week. Dusmatov came into this edition as a two-time Gold-medallist.
"Kuch nahi hai (It's nothing). I think he was a bit intimidated by me this time, his game wasn't upto it," he said with a grin on his face.
"Thoda down tha mere saamne (He seemed a bit down)," he added.
