TEAM INDIA is ready for the Strandja Memorial Boxing tournament commencing on February 1 in Sofia, Bulgaria.

Notably, this contingent differs from the one slated to compete in the upcoming Olympic qualifiers later in February in Italy. The tournament holds special significance as it marks the return of Olympian Amit Panghal to international boxing, ending his absence from the ring in the last two tournaments, including the 2023 Asian Games and World Championships.

The trio of Nikhat Zareen, Lovlina Borgohain, and Preeti will be making a comeback after their stellar performances at the Asian Games 2022, where they clinched medals and secured the 2024 Paris Olympic quota for India.

With four quotas already secured in women's boxing, only two weight categories (60kg and 66kg) remain unclaimed, while the male boxers aim to secure their quotas in the upcoming Olympic qualifiers later this month. Shiva Thapa, Hussamuddin, Nishant Dev, and Deepak Bhoria are among the contenders vying for the coveted spots.

The participating elite boxers for India in the Strandja Memorial tournament are as follows:

Elite Men:

Barun Singh Shagolshem (48kg)
Amit (51kg)
Sachin (57kg)

The 2028 Los Angeles Games has put boxing 'on hold' as the IOC awaits clarity on the sport's future. Boxing, a fixture since 1920, faces a crossroads after a dispute led to the expulsion of the International Boxing Association.

Despite featuring in the upcoming Paris Games, concerns over IBA's credibility, finances, and governance prompted the IOC's executive board to withdraw recognition. No new governing body has been acknowledged.

Last day's IOC session in Mumbai addressed the 2028 Games program, but the absence of a recognized boxing body led to the decision to 'hold' boxing's inclusion.

LA 2028 chairman Casey Wasserman expressed hope for boxing's continued legacy in the Olympics, acknowledging the sport's rich history in America. IOC president Thomas Bach emphasized the desire to keep boxing in the program, but challenges with the governing body complicate the decision.
