Nepal’s Susma Tamang has provided the International Boxing Association (AIBA) Youth World Boxing Championships in Kielce, Poland with one of its indelible moments as she became her country’s first-ever winner in the history of the competition.
Nepal sent two women boxers to the Championships after strong preparations in Kathmandu where their selection events have been held.
Tamang has developed well in terms of speed and punching power in recent years and she used the pandemic period to upgrade her skills.
The fruits of her labour became evident in her bout against Lithuania’s Dija Bajalyte who competed at the last edition of the European Youth Boxing Championships.
