Dubai: As the coronavirus pandemic rages across India, there is a growing concern within the Boxing Federation of India (BFI) about sending Olympic Games-qualified boxers to Dubai for the rearranged Asian Boxing Championship this month. Nine boxers have achieved Olympic quota places for the Tokyo Games scheduled to be held in July-August. The Dubai competition starts on May 21. Of these quota winners, two — Simranjit Kaur (women 60kg) and Ashish Kumar (men’s75kg) — recently tested positive for COVID-19 and are recuperating. While the BFI has ruled out Simranjit’s participation in Dubai as she will complete 15-day quarantine a week before the continental event, Kumar could also be doubtful.
