Nikhat Zareen Bags 2nd World Boxing Championship Gold
The IBA Women's World Boxing Championships were held in New Delhi on Sunday, and Indian boxer Nikhat Zareen successfully defended her title by defeating two-time Asian champion Nguyen Thi Tam of Vietnam.
India won the current Championships' gold medal with Nikhat's 5-0 unanimous victory. After illustrious fighter Mary Kom, Nikhat is now the second Indian female boxer to win several gold medals in the World Championships.
In order to win her second gold medal at the global championships, Nikhat defeated a player from Vietnam. Throughout the fight, Nikhat outmatched her opponent and prevented Nguyen Thi Tam from regaining her equilibrium.
The young Indian boxer Nitu Ghanghas made history earlier on Saturday when she won the IBA Women's World Boxing Championship finals here at the Indira Gandhi Sports Complex, becoming the first woman to hold the title.
India will have a chance to increase their medal total later that evening when Caitlin Parker of Australia and top boxer Lovlina Borgohain square off.
