Asian boxing competition awards silver medal to Tran
The Asian Boxing U19 and U22 Championships 2025, held in Bangkok, Thailand, served as a platform for nurturing Asia's top young boxing talent. The competition, which ran from August 6 to August 12, featured two age groups (U19 and U22) and weight classes ranging from 47kg to over 80kg.
Vietnam's Nguyen Thi Ngoc Tran made a significant impact in the tournament, competing in the women's U22 51kg category. She fought her way through three opponents to reach the final, where she faced Gulsevar Ganieva from Uzbekistan. Although Tran lost the final match with a score of 0-5, her performance earned her a silver medal at the prestigious event.
Tran wasn't the only Vietnamese boxer to bring home a medal from the tournament. Trân Thanh Tuyền won the women's U19 75kg category, while Vũ Thị Thơm secured the women's U19 57kg category. Additionally, six bronze medals were bagged by Vietnam in other classes during the competition.
The Asian Boxing Championships 2025 also proved to be a successful event for India, with the country winning a total of 27 medals. The U19 team finished second overall behind Uzbekistan in gold medals, while India’s U22 finished fourth in the standings. Notable performers for India include Ritika, who won gold in women’s 80+ kg (U22), and several other Indian boxers who secured medals across multiple weight categories.
