Canberra boxer ban shock from world titles

Boxer Bianca Elmir as featured on the cover of "CityNews" in August 2010.
CANBERRA boxer Bianca Elmir’s Olympic dreams have been shattered after her shock banning from the World Titles in China.

She tested positive to a diuretic after being tested in February after the national titles in Hobart in February and faces a two-year suspension from the sport.

The Chinese meeting was an Olympic qualifying event for the selection of the Australian team.

In the recorded interview, the ABC’s TIM GAVEL talks to her manager Alex Belperio.
