Olympics-bound Indian pugilist Amit Panghal has received an invitation to participate in the upcoming seventh Iranian Boxing League, which will played in Tehran, from February 22.
Panghal is presently training at Bellary in Karnataka in India’s camp with his personal coach Anil Dhankhar.
The boxer is yet to confirm on his participation in the tournament as he will take a call after a discussion with his camp’s high-performance director Santiago Niva and coach Dhankhar.
Amit’s uncle Rajnarayan Panghal said that the boxer has received this invitation through e-mail on Monday.
In December 2020, Amit had clinched a gold medal after he was given a walkover by Germany’s Argishti Terteryan at Cologne World Cup.
