Tokyo Olympics: Amit Panghal's best chance to become the face of boxing in India
Another Indian pugilist whose shoulders will be carry high expectations at the Tokyo Olympics is "Giant Slayer" Amit Kumar Panghal. Hailing from Bhiwani, the Haryana district renowned for producing names such as Jitender Kumar, Vijender Singh and Vikas Krishnan Yadav, Amit Panghal is touted as the next big name in Indian boxing.
Ever since he won gold at the Jakarta Asiad in 2018, Panghal, who is currently posted with the Mahar Regiment of the Indian Army, hasn't looked back. He went on to bag a silver medal at the AIBA World Boxing Championships in 2019 and followed it up with a historic gold at the AIBA Boxing World Cup 2020.
Having sent jitters across the best in his category, he is one boxer whom even the Americans won't take lightly at the Tokyo Olympics.
