National Boxing Championships: Shiva Thapa wins 52 kg gold; Devendro Singh upstaged in 60kg final , Guwahati: Commonwealth Games silver-medallist L Devendro Singh (52kg) suffered a shock loss to settle for the silver medal but World bronze-medallist Shiva Thapa prevailed in a slightly ill-tempered final clash to pick up his first lightweight (60kg) National Championships gold medal on
Tuesday. The overall title went to the Services Sports Control Board (SSCB), who ended with four gold, one silver and three bronze medals. The Railways Sports Promotion Board (RSPB) finished second with two gold, two silver and two bronze medals.
Shiva, fighting with a bruised forehead after being head-butted in the quarter-finals, was aggression personified as he overpowered Haryana's Asian Youth silver-medallist Ankush Dahiya 5-0.
