Most of India's Olympic-bound male boxers, including world silver-medallist and defending champion Amit Panghal (52kg), made the cut for the Asian Championships in Dubai, for which the country's contingent will leave on May 21 after having got the requisite clearance to travel. The event was to be held here but was shifted to Dubai because of the COVID-19 pandemic with India retaining the co-host status. The tournament-proper begins on May 24 with the draw ceremony scheduled to be held on May 23. The team's departure plans were shrouded in uncertainty because of international travel restrictions but the UAE authorities gave their approval on Tuesday.More Related News
