CWG 2026: 'We Are Not Able To Eat Food Properly,' Boxer Preeti On Cutting Weight After Entering 54kg Final
Junior Commissioned Officer: Indian boxer Preeti Pawar opened up about the gruelling process of weight cutting before the crucial bout after securing her spot in the women's 54 kg final of the Commonwealth Games, describing the process as tough as the players don't get to eat but stating that it motivates her to progress further and win the medal.
Preeti Pawar became the first Indian boxer to book a place in the final on Friday, defeating Zambia's Catherine Mwape 5-0 in the women's semifinal. She will face Canada’s Scarlett Delgado in the final.
Reflecting on the tough preparation required ahead of crucial bouts, Preeti shared, "It is a part of our training. It motivates us. It is a little tough because we are not able to eat food properly. But it motivates us that we are one step away from the final."
