Teen boxers Shiva Thapa and Sumit Sangwan struck gold today to round off a brilliant performance by India in the Asian Olympic Qualifiers in Astana, Kazakhstan where the country bagged three London tickets to make it an unprecedented seven-strong contingent for the quadrennial extravaganza.
The 18-year-old Shiva (56kg), who is the youngest Indian boxer to qualify for the Olympics, defeated Syria’s Wessam Salamana 18-11 to clinch his second successive senior international gold medal.
