Uzbekistan's U23 and U19 Female Boxers "Shook" Asia in Jakarta
Uzbekistan's female boxers achieved great results at the 2026 Asian Boxing Championships in Jakarta. Our representatives took first place in the overall team standings in both the U23 and U19 categories.
Two age categories, one result — Uzbekistan is first
The Asian Championships for women under 19 and under 23 have concluded in the Indonesian capital, Jakarta.
Most impressively, the top three in both age categories were identical: Uzbekistan first, Kazakhstan second, and India third.
This result once again shows how strongly the reserve is being formed in Uzbek women's boxing. It is no longer just about one generation — both U19 and U23 are leading in Asia.
U23: Absolute leadership with 6 golds
Among athletes under 23, the Uzbekistan national team took first place with 6 gold, 1 silver, and 2 bronze medals.
Kazakhstan finished second with 3 gold, 3 silver, and 2 bronze medals. India rose to third place with 1 gold, 4 silver, and 4 bronze medals.
Rank | Team | Gold | Silver | Bronze | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Uzbekistan | 6 | 1 | 2 | 9 |
2 | Kazakhstan | 3 | 3 | 2 | 8 |
3 | India | 1 | 4 | 4 | 9 |
4 | Japan | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 |
5 | Mongolia | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 |
6 | 0 | 0 | 3 | 3 | |
7 | Indonesia | 0 | 0 | 2 | 2 |
8 | Kyrgyzstan | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 |
8 | Vietnam | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 |
The most important number in this table is 6 golds. Uzbekistan not only won many medals but also significantly outperformed rivals in the number of highest-value medals.
U19: Youth also at the top of the podium
Uzbekistan also took first place among girls under 19. In this category, our representatives collected 4 gold and 2 silver medals.
Kazakhstan was second with 3 gold and 3 bronze, while India was third with 2 gold and 6 silver medals.
Rank | Team | Gold | Silver | Bronze | Total |
1 | Uzbekistan | 4 | 2 | 0 | 6 |
2 | Kazakhstan | 3 | 0 | 3 | 6 |
3 | India | 2 | 6 | 0 | 8 |
4 | Indonesia | 1 | 1 | 0 | 2 |
5 | Taiwan | 0 | 1 | 3 | 4 |
6 | Japan | 0 | 0 | 4 | 4 |
6 | Vietnam | 0 | 0 | 4 | 4 |
8 | Kyrgyzstan | 0 | 0 | 2 | 2 |
9 | Thailand | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 |
9 | Tajikistan | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 |
9 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 | |
9 | Mongolia | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 |
This result in the U19 category is even more important, as today's young champions could become the core strength of the U23 and senior national teams tomorrow.
A total of 10 golds — a major signal
Adding the results of the U19 and U23 categories, Uzbekistan's girls won 10 gold medals in Jakarta.
This is not just statistics. It shows that Uzbek women's boxing is becoming a stable system on an Asian scale.
Category | Gold | Silver | Bronze | Total |
U23 | 6 | 1 | 2 | 9 |
U19 | 4 | 2 | 0 | 6 |
Total | 10 | 3 | 2 | 15 |
15 medals, 10 of which are gold — this is a very strong result. Such an indicator gives great confidence to any sports school.
Kazakhstan and India remain the main rivals
In both age categories, Kazakhstan took second place and India third. This shows that the main competition in Asian women's boxing is forming around these three countries.
Kazakhstan has a traditionally strong boxing school. India has shown great growth in women's boxing in recent years. Against the backdrop of such rivals, Uzbekistan's first place in both categories deserves special recognition.
Why is this result important?
First, it was seen that Uzbek girls are winning medals not only in certain weight classes but across various categories.
Second, being first in both U19 and U23 simultaneously means the reserve system is working correctly.
Third, this result shows that new names, new competition, and new opportunities are emerging for the senior national team.
Men's finals ahead
For information, the Asian Boxing Championships for men under 19 and under 23 are also continuing in Jakarta.
Final bouts are scheduled for July 16. This means the number of medals for the Uzbekistan boxing delegation in Jakarta could increase further.
Jakarta — a powerful statement from a new generation
Uzbekistan's girls made a powerful statement in the Jakarta rings: our country's boxing has a great reserve not only for today but also for tomorrow.
First place in U23, first place in U19, and a total of 10 gold medals — this is not a random result. It is the result of hard work, preparation, character, and confidence in the ring.
Now the main question: can this generation that proved itself in Jakarta conquer the Asian and world podiums in the senior national team as well?
