Indian pugilist Nikhat Zareen has carved her own niche in boxing. Nikhat has won many medals as a boxer and in 2019 she bagged Asian Championships bronze medal. The 22-year-old pugilist Nikhat, who hails from Nizamabad, registered a huge upset win over former two-time champion Nazym Kyzaibay of Kazakhstan in the 51 Kg category to enter the semi-finals. But life for the Nizamabad pugilist has not been very easy as she had to break stereotypes to become a boxer which was called as a male-dominated sport.
