World Boxing C'ships: Jaismine Packs Off Romeu To Reach Quarters
World Boxing Cup Astana: World Boxing Cup Astana gold medallist Jaismine Lamboria booked her quarterfinal spot in the World Boxing Championships in Liverpool, United Kingdom, with a dominant win over two-time Olympian Brazil’s Jucielen Cerqueira Romeu in the women’s 57kg category.
Jaismine and Romeu had earlier faced off in the gold medal bout in Astana, and the Indian had prevailed after a close fight. But in Liverpool, Jaismine dominated all three rounds to bag a 5:0 verdict and is now just a win away from a world championship medal.
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, and is hoping for a good showing in both men's and women's events.
