BOXAM Elite International 2026: Lovlina Borgohain, Arundhati Choudhary lead India’s nine-gold medal run in Spain In a standout achievement, India was represented in seven Elite Women’s finals on Saturday–including an all-Indian title clash in the 54kg division–and emerged with gold in each. Held in La Nucia, Alicante, the BOXAM Elite 2026 featured over 200 boxers from 20 nations, providing a high-quality international test early in the season. India finished as the competition’s most successful nation with nine golds, three silvers and seven bronze medals. BFI President Ajay Singh added,“BOXAM Elite offered exactly the kind of exposure we were seeking at this stage of the season, including strong international opposition, depth across weight categories, and high-pressure bouts. https://twitter.com/BFI_official/status/2020175039056990210?s=20 The performances in Spain, particularly the conversion rate in finals, reflect the progress of our programme. With a demanding year ahead, this tournament has been a valuable step in preparing our boxers for the challenges to come. Congratulations to the entire contingent on an outstanding campaign.” India’s women set the benchmark on the final day. Manju Rani (48kg) and Nitu (51kg) opened proceedings with emphatic unanimous wins over Spain’s Marta Lopez and Noelia Gutierrez respectively, before Poonam (54kg) edged compatriot Preeti in a hard-fought all-Indian final. Priya (60kg) and Arundhati (70kg) followed with commanding 5:0 victories over Ukrainian opponents, while Lovlina (75kg) displayed her trademark control and composure to defeat England’s Mary-Kate Smith 4:1. Naina (80kg) completed the sweep with a measured win over Ukraine’s Raisa Piskun. Reflecting on the women’s performances, Indian women’s head coach Santiago Nieva said, “This was an exceptional showing from the women, not just in terms of medals, but in how they boxed with discipline, clarity, and confidence.
