New Delhi: Unbeaten Indian pro boxer Vijender Singh will return to the ring for the first time in over a year. Whereas the bout is confirmed to be set to happen in India, its dates or Vijender’s opponent is yet to be revealed.
This would be the 2008 Olympics bronze medallist’s 13th professional bout and his fifth in India, following successes in New Delhi, Mumbai and Jaipur. Vijender has a 12-0 record so far in his professional profession with eight knockout wins.
“While the promoters finalise on the opponent, date and venue, Vijender Singh will certainly be in action this March with an aim to extend his unbeaten streak 12-0 (8 Knockout wins) in professional boxing. A group of young and talented boxers may even go head-to-head as undercards for the fight,” his promoters IOS Boxing Promotions mentioned in a statement on Monday.
Vijender, who’s the reigning WBO Oriental Super Middleweight and WBO Asia Pacific Super Middleweight champion beat Ghana’s Charles Adamu in Dubai in his last bout in November 2019.
“I’m really excited to return to the ring. I am pumped up and eager as ever to enter the ring again and have been training hard to keep myself fit for the bout. The opponent doesn’t really matter as I’m focused to extend my unbeaten streak,” mentioned Vijender.
