The leader of our team Nijat Huseynov (51 kg) fought with the Armenian representative Rudolph Garboyan in the final. Our boxer did not give his opponent any chance. Huseynov, who finished all 5 rounds in his favour, won confidently with a score of 5:0 (29:28, 30:27, 29:28, 30:27, 30:27). He thus defended his title and became the European champion for the second time in a row and sang the Azerbaijani national anthem in Budva.
