Nikhat Zareen, the reigning world women’s boxing champion and gold medallist at the Birmingham Commonwealth Games, says she is a disappointed at missing out on completing what “would have been a terrific hat-trick of gold” with the postponement of the Asian Games from later this year”.
In an informal chat here on Wednesday, the 26-year-old Nikhat felt given the kind of form she was in, and also the confidence she had after winning two prestigious events, she was confident of repeating a ‘golden’ performance in the Asiad.
