World Boxing Cup: Jyoti, Minakshi, Prachi, And Deepak Storm Into Finals, India Assured Of Six Medals
World Boxing Cup: India produced a commanding display in the semifinals of the World Boxing Cup (Stage 2) on Saturday, with four pugilists advancing to the finals and two others securing bronze medals to take the country's assured medal tally to six.
Leading the charge was Jyoti in the women’s 48kg category, who edged past Mexico’s Fatima Herrera 3-2 in a closely contested bout. The victory was particularly noteworthy as Herrera had claimed a historic silver medal at the World Boxing Cup in Brazil earlier this year after moving to the 48kg division.
India’s challenge gathered further momentum when Minakshi (51kg) delivered a dominant performance against Spain’s Laura Fuertes Fernandez. The former world No. 1 in the 48kg division, now competing in a higher weight class, outclassed her opponent with a unanimous 5-0 verdict to book her place in the title clash.
