Mary Kom wins President's Cup gold medal in style ahead of World Championships

The Hindu  

Six-time world champion Mary Kom and 2018 World Championships bronze winner Simranjit Kaur grabbed a gold each as Indian boxers finished their campaign at the 23rd President’s Cup in Labuan Bajo, Indonesia with nine medals on Sunday. Two months after winning the gold at the India Open, Mary Kom arrived at this prestigious tournament with the aim of testing herself against the world’s best ahead of the World Championships in October. I sincerely thanks to all my Coaches and support staffs of @BFI_official@KirenRijiju@Media_SAIpic.twitter.com/R9qxWVgw81 — Mary Kom July 28, 2019 In her first bout on Saturday Mary Kom had to dig deep to stave off the resistance of Vietnam’s Anh vo Thi Kim 3-2, but she was simply magnificent in the final as she powered to a 5-0 win over Australia’s April Franks. Among the men, 2017 Ulaanbaatar Cup gold medallist Ankush Dahiya, 2017 Simon Prestige Memorial tournament bronze medallist Neeraj Swami and Ananta Pralhad Chopade were crowned the champions in their respective weight categories.
