World Boxing U-19 Championships: Aditya crowned champion in men’s 55kg

New Delhi, Oct 27 (UNI) Aditya was crowned the men’s 55kg champion in 2026 World Boxing U-19 Championships in Budva, Montenegro, as India finished with a gold, one silver and two bronze medals.
Aditya, the Asian U-19 silver medallist, fought back after narrowly to losing the opening round to beat Islam Magomedov of Russia 4:1 in the summit clash on Tuesday.
"I was trailing 3-2 after the first round, but I stepped it up to take the next one 4-1. That’s when the belief hit me that I could win this bout. I’m truly grateful to all the coaches and my teammates here at the World Championships in Montenegro—their support throughout the camp made all the difference,” said Aditya in his first reaction after the victory.
Later, India’s chances of winning the second gold were shattered after Megha Sheokand lost her women’s 80kg final against Ekaterina Frolova of Russia 0:5.

India’s two bronze medals came through Harshika (women’s 65kg) and Prachi Tokas (women’s 80 kg).
