In the World Championships in Liverpool, Minakshi Hooda continued her impressive run to become the third Indian woman boxer to enter the final beating Mongolia’s Lutsaikhany Altantsetseg in the 48kg semifinals today. Minakshi has now assured India’s 4th medal at the championships.
Minakshi, a former Asian Championships and World Cup silver medallist, registered a dominant 5-0 win over the 2023 World Championships silver medallist.
With the victory, Minakshi joined Commonwealth Games bronze medallist Jaismine Lamboria (57kg) and heavyweight boxer Nupur Sheoran (80+kg), both of whom stormed into the finals with comprehensive wins. Pooja Rani (80kg) will be in action later today in a semi-final fight.
