Vijender Singh, who has made a career debut in the ring of politics, has not lost any professional boxing match in the last five years and now wants to maintain this rhythm with the world title. Vijender, who won India's first Olympic medal in boxing and world championships, holds a 12–0 record on the professional circuit. He said, 'Now all my preparation is for the world title. I will fight three to four matches this year in which the world title is bigger. We are trying to have this competition in India.
He defeated former Commonwealth Champion Charles Adamu of Ghana in a one-sided match in November 2019. In the last five years, Vijender suffered the only defeat in the Lok Sabha elections in 2019, in which he fought from South Delhi on a Congress ticket.
Asked if he is sorry for this, he said, 'Absolutely not. He said, 'Many times you win and sometimes you learn. This is how I see my decision to join politics. Why would I be sorry to lose just one election?
