In a stunning display of prowess, Jadumani Singh clinched the gold medal in the men’s elite category at the ongoing National Boxing Championships, propelling Services Sports Promotion Board (SSPB) to the top of the medal tally. The championships, hosted at the Rajiv Gandhi Sports Complex in Rohtak, Haryana, have been a battleground for India’s finest pugilists, and Singh’s victory marks a significant highlight.
Singh dominated his opponents throughout the tournament, showcasing impeccable technique and relentless aggression. In the final bout, he outclassed his rival with a series of precise punches and superior footwork, securing a unanimous decision from the judges. This triumph not only adds to his personal accolades but also underscores SSPB’s dominance in the sport.
Services now lead the medal tally with an impressive haul of multiple golds, silvers, and bronzes, ahead of strong contenders like the Railways and Army teams. Other notable performances included several boxers from the defending champions who fought valiantly but fell short in key matches.
The event, organized by the Boxing Federation of India (BFI), features over 1,000 participants across various weight categories and age groups. It serves as a crucial platform for selection to national camps and international competitions. Coaches and officials praised Singh’s mental fortitude, noting his comeback from an early setback in the preliminaries.
As the championships progress into their final days, anticipation builds for more thrilling encounters. SSPB’s lead positions them favorably, but with several categories still undecided, the competition remains fierce. Jadumani Singh’s gold is a testament to dedicated training and the growing depth of Indian boxing talent.
