The 29 year old was up against the Asian Champion and second seed.
Grainne Walsh has lost out on a split decision to Uzbekistan’s Navbakhor Khamidova in Serbia last night.
The Tullamore woman who was making her World Championship debut, more then held her own against the reigning Asian Champion and second seed.
Despite what seemed a strong first round from the 29 year old, all three judges scored it against her.
There was to be further controversy at the very end of the second round when when Walsh was deducted a point for holding in what seemed to involve both boxers.
The referee awarded the victory to Khamidova, however the decision was met with repeated words of "it's a disgrace" from the Irish corner.
