Indian boxer Sagar Ahlawat on Thursday advanced to the semi-finals of the men’s 92kg quarterfinals at the ongoing Commonwealth Games 2022, confirming a medal for India.
The Indian defeated KD Evans Agnes of Seychelles 5-0 by unanimous decision to assure India of a medal to reach the semi-finals.
Ahlawat eased the bout after landing some big left punches early on, but Agnes showed a firm front by taking off a few shots of her own.
Agnes came strong in the second round and was busy taking the Indian to the ropes. But Ahlawat hit a counter-punch and was out victorious in the second round itself.
The third round of the match was one-sided as Ahlawat took over Agnes and emerged the winner easily by unanimous decision.
Earlier in the day, Amit Panghal entered the semi-finals of the men’s 51kg flyweight. The Indian defeated Scottish boxer Lennon Mulligan 5-0 in his quarterfinal match at the National Exhibition Center (NEC) in Solihull.
Ahlawat joins Mohammad Husamuddin, Neetu Ghanghas, Nikhat Zareen and Amit Panghal and Jasmine Lomboria in the list of Indian boxers who are assured of at least a bronze medal.

The Guess brand has been known for all things denim since the early ’80s, when four brothers from the south of France landed in Los Angeles and started their own blue jeans label.
Over the next 50 years, the company morphed into a publicly traded $2.6 billion enterprise, with the Marciano family still a major shareholder and some members continuing as part of the operation. Now, the next generation is leaving its mark on the fashion industry.
Emma Marciano, whose father is Guess cofounder Maurice Marciano, a former chief executive officer and current board member, is designing a new independently owned and operated label called Mimchik, which is not associated with the Guess label. It launched in October with the help of its business partner, Mia Kazowski.
The two joined forces at the beginning of the year after meeting through Emma’s older sister, Olivia. “Olivia and Mia were best friends in eighth grade and parted ways for a while,” Emma Marciano recalled.
When Kazowski grabbed Olivia, she shared that she was starting her own brand after leaving her previous label, Dooz. Marciano was also looking to start his own label. Olivia introduces the two, and they kill it immediately.
Marciano, 24, who studied at New York University and took a one-year apprenticeship at Guess, had a wealth of ideas, but felt overwhelmed by the shadow of Guess’s greatness. “Obviously there were some big shoes to fill,” she said.

Kazowski, 30, who is a graduate of Pratt Institute, founded an astrology-oriented apparel, handbag and accessories company called Dooz in 2018 but left last year to branch out on her own. “I moved from New York back to Los Angeles and felt I needed a fresh start,” Kazowski said. “I started doing something else, but it was hard to do by myself. … Emma and I hit it off, and ever since, we’re both inseparable.”
The idea behind MimChic, which will initially be sold online, is to create something different for the girl who has completely exhausted different things to wear. “This is for someone who doesn’t want to wear a tight black dress anymore and wants something very out of the box,” Marciano said.
The tag line that works for their clientele is “conscious hot girl”. It is about a girl who is in her 20s or 30s who likes to have fun and wear different well made clothes, which is not fashion. “It’s a lot who are willing to pay a little more for something that will last forever,” Kazowski said. Prices will range from $120 for a tank top to $800 for a jacket.
The two manufacturers, who are self-funding for their project, are producing fashion designs in small batches manufactured in Los Angeles to reduce waste, primarily from eco-friendly fabrics, deadstock or recycled materials. have been created. “We are a fashion brand coming into this vast world, and we don’t want to add more waste and continue to spoil our earth,” Marciano said.
Her first collection has about 12 styles, including one dress, two skirts, two pants, a top that comes in multiple colors, and jackets. “Our clothing is playing on men’s suits and taking formality out of it, making it playful, whimsical, fun and sexy,” Marciano said.
Oversized, men’s-style jackets would be paired with a miniskirt. “It’s our own visual language, playing with proportions,” Kazowski said.
One of the challenges with growing a brand is finding the right fabric and then hoping it doesn’t run out of stock. Another challenge is taking samples back from the sewing factory and finding that they haven’t lived up to your expectations and need to be redone.
Zakowski brings his technical prowess to the new label, having learned from launching Douz with Rachel Borghard, who remains in the company.
And Marciano has a wealth of product ideas. “I live and breathe clothes,” she said. “It’s just the one thing that really brings a lot of joy and makes my heart beat so fast. I come to Mia with all these thoughts, and she is able to bring them to life,” she said.
Marciano is also sharing his thoughts with his father, Maurice, even though he is still recovering from a bicycle accident he had two years ago in Napa Valley, Calif. “He’s not able to speak,” said Marciano, “but I’m showing him what I’m doing excites him and shows him that I’m capable of doing it on my own.”
Recording his name in the list of winners at the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, weightlifter Lovepreet Singh won a bronze medal in the men’s weightlifting 109 kg weight category in England on 03 August. The winner expressed happiness after his big win. “I feel good, and this was my first major competition. I did my best today, live on stage. I want to dedicate my medal to my country and my family,” said the winner.

Sixteen years on, five Commonwealth Games (CWG) performances, 10 medals including five gold, and more is still to be expected. There are also two Asian Games bronze. It will take some time to break Sharath Kamal’s record. And that’s not done yet. After his latest gold in the team event, Sharath spoke to Boria Majumdar. Excerpts:
You’re 40 now and still raising the bar. Whats the secret?
The secret is the tricolor. You just want to do something for your country. When I look back, I think I was able to do this because of my discipline and passion for the game. There is nothing better than to make our people proud. Here in Birmingham, being able to defend the team means a lot to us. And when you beat a team like Nigeria 3-0, it’s a result of pride because it means you’re improving and on the right track. Except in the final, we haven’t lost a single match and that’s the consistency.
Let us tell you about that match against Quadri Aruna of Nigeria. Perhaps this was the turning point.
Yes, this will go down as one of the best matches I have played. This is no exaggeration. Qadri is a very good player and kept coming back and constantly threatening my lead. Being able to hold him back and take the win means a lot to me and the team. It was an important match and that I was able to win, it gave the team the freedom they needed to close the tie.
You played really well against Ma Long of China in Tokyo. Now you have defeated Qadri Aruna. You seem to be in good shape mentally and physically.
We had prepared very well for the Commonwealth Games and I have trained very hard to get here. You will never see results until you do. It is a matter of great pride for me to play this game. The match against Ma Long was great but I was on the losing side. It was nice to be able to cross the quadri here.
There are still three more medals left. How confident are you about other events?
It is all about preparation and process. I am sure about that. My training, my discipline, my routine. Also Sathiyan is playing very well. Therefore, we have grown as a team. In the next few days, we will try to add more to the first gold medal we have won and we are confident that we will be able to do so.
