India’s star professional boxer Mandeep Jangra is ready for the NBA lightweight world title. He is the first Indian boxer to be in the ring for the world title. Mandeep is just one win away from giving India its first world title belt. He will face Nicaraguan boxer Nilo Guerrero at the Legends Casino in Washington. This fight will take place on September 19 in America, but both will clash on September 20 at 8 am Indian time. Mandeep Jangra has also done his training in Chandigarh and when he is in India, he works on his fitness at the Minerva Academy.
Talking about experience, Mandeep has played 1 fight more than nilo. The 31-year-old Indian boxer has fought 10 fights and won all of them. In 7 of these, he also knocked out the opponent boxer. At the same time, Nilo won 9 out of 9 bouts and also knocked out 7. Both boxers are equal and a good match will be seen. Jangra, who won the Intercontinental title in January 2024, will have a chance to win the world title this time. He has tested himself at every level with Roy Jones Jr.
Mandeep said that I have prepared very well for this fight. The opponent boxer is experienced, but I know my capabilities. I have more technical experience and this is my strength. With the help of my sponsor Nash Built Construction, I have prepared with Roy Jones Jr. Winning the world title is my dream which I am going to fulfill. This title will open the way for the upcoming big titles and will motivate Indian boxers.
On his comeback, Mandeep Jangra said that it was not easy to return. Roy Jones Jr. brought me back and I started afresh. I worked on many details in 1.5 years of training with Roy. I brought my weight down from 75 to 59. This journey was the most difficult in my career so far. The change has made me mature and I have worked very hard for it. Working hard is all that is in my hands and I will always keep doing it.
