She beat Morgan Henderson of New Zealand in a closely contested bout to progress through to the semi-finals of the women's 70 kg division.

Sachin Siwach won against Treasure Moremi of Botswana in the Men's 60 kg division. The Indian boxer is known for his strong lateral movement and ability to maintain distance to leverage his height and reach advantage due to his impressive height of 5ft 10in that has him towering over most fighters in the division.

Narender Berwal won by split decision against Michael Seko of Samoa in the men's 90 kg division despite receiving multiple deductions. The Indian boxer, who towers over most with a height of 6ft 4in, took on the Samoan fighting in what could be best described as a slugfest. Both fighters showcased impressive power. However, the second and third rounds saw Narender achieving a knockdown against the Samoan fighter and securing the win.

Jasmine Lamboria secured herself a medal after progressing to the semi-finals through a split decision of 4-1 by the judges. The first two rounds saw the judges closely split between the two fighters. However, a dominant third round saw Jasmine dominate Elise Glynn of England and confirm a medal.
