Hall takes unanimous decision

Waikato boxer Greer Hall turned on a sharp display to outpoint Botswana's Keatlaretse Moore in their 54kg first-round bout.

The 20-year-old New Zealander dominated all three rounds and used her strong right hand to inflict considerable damage on the Botswanan.

Moore was forced to take a standing count in both the first and third rounds. Surprisingly, Hall, who seemed in no trouble, was subjected to a standing count in the third round.

Hall won every round on four of the five judges' scorecards.

'It exceeded my expectations,' Hall said. 'I felt really good in there. It was an awesome fight and I got the job done.'
