China's Wu Yu and Yang Chengyu were respectively crowned world champions in 50-52kg flyweight and 60-63kg light welterweight at the IBA Women's Boxing World Championships 2023.
NEW DELHI, March 26 (Xinhua) — Two Chinese boxers Wu Yu and Yang Chengyu both lifted the world titles at the IBA Women's Boxing World Championships 2023 at Indira Gandhi Sports Complex here on Saturday.
Competing in the elite women's 50-52kg flyweight category, Wu beat Italian Sirine Charaabi by a 5-0 unanimous verdict to claim the gold, while her compatriot Yang beat Russia's Nataliya Sychugova with a 4-1 verdict in the elite women's 60-63kg light welterweight event.
