Speaking on the development, Rikant Pittie, Co-Founder, EaseMyTrip said, “Boxing is a combat sport where 360-degree, high-octane action is always exhibited to the fans. The women’s world championship in 2023 is a marquee event and has some superstars competing for the coveted championship win. It is our attempt to support women empowerment through this association as we truly stand by it. Being such a dynamic and 360-degree sport, the IBA Women’s World Championship 2023 also presents us with an amazing opportunity to amplify the brand’s visibility to millions of boxing fans.”
“It was a great tournament for the world’s top women boxers, as New Delhi provided a warm welcome and staged a landmark edition of the IBA Women’s World Boxing Championships,” IBA Secretary General and CEO George Yerolimpos said.
“An exceptionally high standard of competition in New Delhi was witnessed by fully packed K.D. Jadhav Indoor Hall, and the medal-winners from previous major events as well as newcomers at this level were able to claim medals. This was also an outstanding opportunity for the home country’s top boxers to get well-deserved support of the home crowd. India’s reputation as a powerhouse nation in women’s boxing was cemented one more time.” Added Yerolimpos.
