Priya Ghanghas wins Asian Games boxing bronze
India’s Priya Ghanghas won bronze in the women’s 60-kilogram boxing event at the Asian Games on Wednesday, September 30, after losing her semifinal to China’s Yang Chengyu. The result came alongside two gold medals for India in compound archery, including a women’s team victory over China and a mixed-team win over South Korea. Yang defeated Ghanghas in the semifinal, leaving the Indian boxer with bronze. Reports differ on the bout’s score: one gives the result as 4-1, while another provides round-by-round judging details and describes Yang winning each of the final two rounds. The detailed scoring account also says judges awarded Yang the opening round by a 3-2 split. The available reports agree on the outcome but do not provide a consistent complete scoreline. Ghanghas had entered the semifinal assured of at least bronze. She is a 2026 Commonwealth Games gold medallist, and the Asian Games result adds another medal to India’s boxing campaign. One report said Indian boxers had secured six medals, compared with one silver and three bronze at the previous edition; that comparison was not detailed by other reports.
