Kapil Pokhariya Wins Bronze in 90kg Boxing at Asian Games Debut
Indian boxer Kapil Pokhariya secured a bronze medal in his Asian Games debut after losing 1-4 to reigning world champion Turabek Khabibullaev of Uzbekistan in the 90kg semifinal. Despite a solid defense, Kapil was noted for being passive and unable to mount a strong late challenge. Turabek's precise and composed performance earned him a place in the final. India has assured six boxing medals this edition, surpassing the previous tally of four in 2023.
