Boxing is slowly becoming a sport where India can hope for a medal at the Olympics. At 2008 Beijing Olympics Vijender Singh won India’s first medal in boxing. This was followed by Mary Kom’s medal four years later at the 2012 London Games. India boxers returned empty handed from 2016 Rio Games but Lovlina Borgohain helped India clinch bronze at 2020 Tokyo Olympics. India will be hoping that its boxers can add to the country’s medal haul at Paris Games. Here is a look at India’s boxing team for the Paris Olympics 2024.
