World Boxing Cup Brazil: Abhinash Jamwal delivered a near-perfect performance against Italy’s Gianluigi Malanga to storm into the 65kg final of the World Boxing Cup Brazil 2025 at Foz Do Iguacu on Friday.

The 22-year-old Indian used his tall frame and athleticism to stay clear of Malanga’s reach but was quick enough to pounce when his opponent’s guard was down to earn a 5:0 unanimous verdict.

Four of the five judges awarded Jamwal a perfect 30, with all the five judges awarding the first and third rounds to the Indian unanimously. Malanga had to even face a countdown in the first round itself, putting him on the back foot for the rest of the bout.
