India delivered a powerhouse performance at the World Boxing Cup in Greater Noida, with five boxers punching their way into the finals on an action-packed day.
Arundhati Chaudhary’s Fierce Comeback
Returning to international competition after 18 months, Arundhati Chaudhary put on a dominating show in the 66kg category, defeating Germany’s Leonie Müller— a three-time medalist — by RSC after repeated knockdowns.
Arundhati displayed relentless aggression:
Controlled Rounds 1 & 2 with clean hits
Knocked the German veteran down in Round 2
Dropped her again in Round 3, forcing the referee to stop the contest
Arundhati’s reaction:
“I’m happy to be back with a win. I was a bit nervous since my last international outing ended with a loss at the Paris Olympic Qualifiers and a wrist surgery. I’ve waited for this moment—now I’m back.”
