Assam's Lovlina, who was boxing for the first time since the Paris 2024 Olympics, beat Chandigarh's Pranshu Rathore 5-0 by unanimous decision to mark a triumphant return to the ring.
The 27-year-old Indian boxer had also won the gold medal in the same weight category in the 2022 National Games held in Gujarat. (ANI) (This is an unedited and auto-generated story from Syndicated News feed, LatestLY Staff may not have modified or edited the content body)
