World Boxing C'ship: Nupur Confirms First Medal For India
World Boxing Cup Astana: World Boxing Cup Astana gold medallist Nupur continued her fine form to confirm India’s first medal at the World Boxing Championships in Liverpool on Wednesday with a 4:1 win over Uzbekistan’s Oltinoy Sotimboeva in the women’s 80+kg quarterfinals.
In a tactical bout that saw both boxers receive a point penalty for excessive holding, Nupur started strong in the opening round but saw her opponent, a former World Youth silver medallist and bronze medallist in Astana, close the gap in the second.
However, the Indian stepped up her attack in the third and final round and also kept her opponent at bay to reach the semifinals.
