INDIAN boxing is in the process of scripting a new chapter inside the ring. As far as men's boxing is concerned, the old guard has gradually been pushed aside after the conclusion of the Paris Olympics cycle and some of the new names who have stepped up. The fresh faces, currently breaking sweat at the ongoing national camp in NIS Patiala, are now looking to be part of history books.
The 10-member men's boxing team, which was ascertained last month, is currently gearing up for the all-important World Championships that is scheduled to be held early next month in Liverpool. Having been part of the national coaching setup for a long time, Dharmendra Singh Yadav has overseen countless life-changing bouts over the years at the elite level. But this time it's a bit different as he's in charge of the boxing operations as the head coach.
