Paris Olympian Omailyn Carolina Alcala: World Boxing Cup Astana silver medallist Minakshi once again came up with a clinical performance to defeat youngster Alice Pumphrey of England in the women’s 48kg quarterfinals and assure India’s fourth medal in the World Boxing Championships 2025 in Liverpool on Friday.

The 24-year-old from Rohtak in Haryana used her long reach to dominate Pumphrey from the very first round and deserved the 5:0 verdict as she joined the likes of Nupur (women’s 80+kg), Jaismine Lamboria (women’s 57kg) and Pooja Rani (women’s 80kg) in the semi-finals of the prestigious tournament, thereby ensuring a podium finish.

India has fielded a 20-member contingent at the inaugural World Championships being held under the aegis of the World Boxing – a recently formed international governing body for boxing.
