Deepak Bhoria has already got himself a gift for his 26th birthday, which he will celebrate on June 9 next week: a maiden World Boxing Championships medal, bronze in the 51kg weight class.
That performance in Tashkent last month was clearly a gift that kept giving. For, it also stoked the fire in his belly. Following a week’s rest, the gritty boxer rejoined the National camp to resume training for the next two big events — the Hangzhou Asian Games and the Paris Olympics.
