BOXING is in her blood and she packs a heavy punch. Nupur Sheoran is in the process of building her family's rich legacy. Granddaughter of legendary pugilist, captain Hawa Singh, one of country's first icons in the combat sport, the 26-year-old grinded out a fighting victory to become the first from India to secure a medal at the ongoing World Boxing Championships at the M&S Bank Arena in Liverpool on Wednesday.
Her father Sanjay Kumar, who is also a former certified boxer, is filled with pride. Moreover, her mother is also a former basketball player. Sanjay is stoked to witness his daughter carry on the family's legacy. "Her grandfather was a great boxer, Asian gold medallist, I was an Asian medallist and now my daughter is now a Worlds medallist. It can't get better than this," Sanjay, who manages the Captain Hawa Singh Boxing Academy in Bhiwani, told this daily.
