Olympic medalist Lovlina Borgohain has issued a strong statement following her early exit from the World Boxing Championships. The boxer, who has been one of India’s top medal contenders in recent years, expressed disappointment not just with her performance but also with the circumstances surrounding her preparations.

Lovlina clarified that she never demands “luxury” or unnecessary privileges from authorities. Instead, she said she only seeks fair facilities and proper support to train and perform at her best. Her remarks come after reports suggested differences between athletes and officials over access to personal coaches and training arrangements.

In her statement, Lovlina highlighted that international boxing is becoming increasingly competitive, and without the right infrastructure and consistent backing, even the most talented athletes struggle to deliver results. She stressed that athletes dedicate years of hard work and sacrifice for a few minutes in the ring, and inadequate preparation can have a direct impact on performance.

The boxer’s comments have sparked discussions in the sporting community, with many pointing out that India’s sporting system still faces gaps in providing world-class support. Despite being a decorated athlete, Lovlina’s recent struggles reflect the larger challenges Indian boxers face in global competitions.

Lovlina, who had previously won a bronze medal at the Tokyo Olympics, remains determined to continue her journey. She concluded her note by reaffirming her commitment to the sport and expressing hope that the right support system will be in place as she prepares for future tournaments.
