CWG 2026: 'She Taught Me How To Become A Successful Boxer': Jadumani Credits Sarita Devi For Silver
Jadumani Singh: India's Commonwealth Games silver medallist Jadumani Singh credited veteran boxer Sarita Devi for shaping his journey as a boxer, saying her constant guidance and unwavering belief played a defining role in his impressive campaign at the Commonwealth Games 2026.
Jadumani settled for silver in the men's 55kg boxing event after losing by unanimous decision to Australia's Jye Dixon in the final on Saturday. The 22-year-old pushed the Australian throughout the three-round contest, but Dixon's disciplined counter-punching and cleaner scoring shots proved decisive.
Reflecting on his journey after the final, Jadumani said Sarita Devi had been a guiding force in his career since his childhood and remained closely involved throughout the Commonwealth Games.
