Sastha Vasanth Ashok Kumar: India’s young boxers have officially guaranteed an astonishing 27 out of 30 possible medals in the U-15 category at the Asian Boxing U15 & U17 Championships 2026 in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. Showcasing absolute dominance, the U-15 girls’ contingent secured 14 out of 15 possible medals, while the U-15 boys nearly matched the feat by confirming 13 out of 15 medals, setting the stage for a historic overall podium finish for the country.

Following this massive medal confirmation, the Indian boys delivered another day of ruthless performances, marked by a flurry of RSC (Referee Stops Contest) victories. Sastha Vasanth Ashok Kumar (37kg) and Parshant (49kg) led the aggressive charge, both stopping their respective UAE opponents, Mohammed Albannai and Mayed Alyammahi, via RSC in the very first round. Nitin (40 kg) and Harshvardhan Jeena (55 kg) further displayed India's attacking prowess, securing second-round RSC wins over Kazakhstan’s Sayat Mengdibay and Tajikistan’s Muhammad Fozilov, respectively.

In the closely contested bouts, Yash Kumar (33kg) and Rohit Pothina (35kg) navigated tough opponents with tactical brilliance to secure hard-fought 4:1 split decision victories against Tajikistan’s Rasuljon Karimov and Mongolia's Temuulen Munkhbayar.
