India’s Aditya was victorious in the men’s 55kg at the 2026 World Boxing U-19 Championships held in Budva, Montenegro. The Indian team overall won four medals, including one gold, one silver and two bronze medals.
Aditya, the Asian U-19 silver medallist, powered his way to the top after a slow start to outplay Russia’s Islam Magomedov 4:1 to win the men’s 55kg trophy. “I was trailing 3-2 after the first round. But I stepped it up to take the next round 4-1. I’m truly grateful to all the coaches and my teammates,” Aditya said.

India’s Megha Sheokand won silver in the women’s 80kg. She lost to Russia’s Ekaterina Frolova 0:5. Harshika (women’s 65kg) and Prachi Tokas (women’s 80+kg) won bronze medals in their weight groups.
