NEW DELHI: For Deepak Bhoria, the bronze medal at the world championships in Tashkent was the culmination of a decade-long struggle. There were many players in that struggle – the boxing federation, his surroundings, financial condition, and at times himself.
Hailing from Hisar in Haryana, Deepak’s father Surinder Kumar did small-time jobs as home guard to sustain the family. Often he was out of job, and had to look out for another.
