Sanjeet and Varinder off to flying start

Shillong: Asian Championships 2021 gold medalist Sanjeet (92kg) and three-time national champion Varinder Singh (60kg) notched up commanding wins against their respective opponents on Day 1 of the Elite Men’s National Boxing Championships here on Sunday. Sanjeet, representing Services, used his experience to beat Jagadheeshwaran J of Karnataka in the opening round itself. Sanjeet’s aggressive approach and hard-hitting punches were too good to handle for his opponent, resulting in the referee stopping the contest for the former’s win. On Tuesday, Sanjeet will be up against Sawan Gill in the pre-quarterfinals clash. Varinder, playing for Railways, began the bout on a cautious note against Bihar’s Amlesh Kumar. Varinder tested his opponent initially, before launching some counter-attacking punches towards the end. Meanwhile, Harsh Choudhary (80kg) of Rajasthan faced Uttar Pradesh’s Shivam Saini in his tournament opener. Choudhary overpowered his opponent, thanks to his quick moments, strength and accurate punches, winning the bout 5-0 by unanimous decision. Also, Punjab’s Jashanpreet Singh (71kg) registered a commanding win against Mohammad Moin Shikh of Gujarat, as the bout ended with a knockout in Round 2. Assam’s Shiva Thapa (63.5kg), a six-time Asian medalist, will begin his campaign in the Round of 32, having received a bye in his opening round and will take on Abhinash Jamwal of Himachal Pradesh on Monday.
