INDIABOXING - P A S T  &  P R E S E N T

World Championship gold medallist M C Marykom led the way as nine Indian boxers moved into the finals, scoring convincing victories in the semi-final bouts of the Second Asian women's boxing championships at Hisar on Friday. The hosts' march overshadowed the progress of North Korea, who have eight pugilists in the finals.

In the 45-kg class, Mary Kom lived upto her billing, showcasing her powerful left hooks and straight cuts as she banged her way to victory against L G Chandrika of Sri Lanka.

Though the Lankan girl tried to tighten up her defence, Marykom breached it with skill before the Referee Stopped Contest (RSC) verdict came in the second round.
