New Delhi: Indian boxer Amit Panghal, who created history by winning a medal in the World Boxing Championships, has come from a very lackluster background. He has faced very difficult experiences to reach this point. He made history by winning the silver medal despite losing in the finals of the World Championship.

For the first time in 45 years, India received a silver medal in the men's category at the World Championships started in 1974. India had so far won only the bronze medal in the World Championship. Panghal was the fifth Indian boxer to reach the semi-finals after Vijender Singh, Vikas Krishna, Shiv Thapa and Gaurav Vidhuri. However, he made history by reaching the finals.

Panghal is the first boxer in the men's section to reach the finals of the World Championship. He performed brilliantly from the beginning in the tournament and faced opponents in the ring with the same spirit till the end. Amit Panghal started boxing in the year 2008. Amit's uncle used to give boxing training to children in the village.

In 2017, when he went to Hamburg, Germany for the first time to participate in the World Championship, he liked a particular shoe at a shop there. These shoes were especially worn for boxing. Though it was not in Panghal's capacity to pay his price, he liked the shoes so much that he could not stop himself. In such a situation, he made up his mind to borrow. He bought these shoes by borrowing from fellow boxer Kavindra Bisht.
