Jr World Boxing C'ships: India Assured Of 17 Medals As Eight More Reach Semis
IBA Junior World Boxing Championships: Reigning Asian Junior champions Nisha (52kg) and Akansha (70kg) put up a solid show to confirm medals along with six other Indian pugilists on the seventh day of the IBA Junior World Boxing Championships 2023 in Yerevan, Armenia.
Indian girls once again led the proceedings with their dominant show as all five boxers in action won their respective matches to enter the semis. Akansha (70kg) began the day on an aggressive note before her opponent Kurbonboeva Rayhona of Uzbekistan unsettled the Indian pugilist with her counterattack. However, Akansha ultimately won 4-1 on split decision verdict.
Nisha (52kg), on the other hand, proved too strong for Grace Conway of Ireland as she was declared the winner by a unanimous 5-0 decision. Shrushti recorded a comfortable win in 63kg after the referee stopped the contest in round two against Mariia Kazaova of Russia.
