Montenegrin boxer Filip Klepo ended his performance at the World Youth Championship in Budva without a medal.

Yesterday, he was defeated by Armen Poghosyan from Armenia in the quarter-final match of the 75 to 80 kilogram category.

In the duel for the semi-finals and medals, the Armenian celebrated with an interruption in the third round.

He deservedly continued his way to the medal, as he was convincingly better throughout the fight.

After the first round, all five judges gave an advantage to Poghosjan, at the end of the second, the Montenegrin boxer was knocked down, and at the beginning of the third round, after an exchange of blows, the judges in the ring from Saudi Arabia stopped the fight.

"What happened, happened. I know what my mistakes were, what I need to fix. In the next matches it will definitely be better. Every flaw should be corrected. I blame myself for the determination to move forward and the great amount of nervousness I had before the match Klepo said.

He emphasized that participating in such a big competition is an honor and a great privilege for him, as well as a great experience.

Earlier, Miloš Roganović ended his performance at the championship.

Klepo defeated Seychelles representative Ven Kenny Jean Charles by stoppage in the second round.

Roganović won in the 63,5 to 67 kilogram category by unanimous decision of the judges of the Serbian representative Hristofer Dimitrov, but due to health problems, he gave up the fight against Kazakhstan's Torekhan Sabirkhan.
