Top boxers bring out best in me, says giant slayer Deepak
New Delhi, May 16 (PTI) World Championship bronze medallist Deepak Bhoria, who has a penchant for defeating some of the giants of the game, feels fighting against top boxers "brings out the best in me".
Deepak produced one of the best performances for India in recent years as he upstaged Tokyo Olympic bronze medallist and 2021 World Champion Saken Bibossinov 5-2, in the second round at the recently-concluded World Championships.
A couple of years earlier, the pint-size boxer had stunned the then Olympic champion and 2019 World Championships gold medallist Shakhobidin Zoirov of Uzbekistan, at the Strandja Memorial Boxing Tournament.
