India topped the medal table at the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games with seven golds and three silvers after a pulsating day of finals action over two sessions of boxing at the Scottish Event Centre (SEC) on the banks of the River Clyde.

The Indian team enjoyed victory in seven of the 10 finals it took part in, winning five of the seven women’s categories and two of the men’s.

England was the next best performing team, winning four golds on the day and equalling India’s overall count of 10 medals.

The other two nations that went home with gold medals were Australia with two and Northern Ireland with one.  

In the morning session, India was quick out of the traps with two victories as Preeti Preeti overcame Canada’s Scarlett Savannah Delgado at bantamweight (W54kg) and Jaismine Jaismine outpointed the defending champion, Michaela Walsh of Northern Ireland, at featherweight (W57kg) to add the Commonwealth title to the World Boxing Championship she won in Liverpool in September 2025.

England’s first victory came in the women’s welterweight (W65kg) competition where Sacha Hickey used her speed and strength to good effect as she secured a unanimous victory over Northern Ireland’s Kaci Rock.

There was more success to follow for England in the men’s welterweight (M65kg) competition, where Patris Mughalzai, delivered a superb exhibition of counter punching to flummox Australia’s Jacob Cassar and win all three rounds on every judge’s card.

There was better news for Australia in the men’s bantamweight (M55kg) category where Jye Dixon broke India’s winning streak with a unanimous 5:0 victory over Jadumani Singh Mandengbam to land his country’s first gold medal of the boxing tournament.

After a series of unanimous wins, the men’s light-middleweight (M75kg) was a much tighter affair between Orlando Holley-Sotomi of Wales and Northern Ireland’s Jon McConnell.

The bout was finely poised after two rounds, but it was McConnell who made the most impact on the judges to take the last round on four cards and secure a 4:1 split decision to win Northern Ireland’s sole gold of the competition.

The final bout of the morning saw Isaac Okoh make it three wins from three for England with a classy display of backfoot boxing to outfox Connor Williams of Wales and secure a unanimous 5:0 win.

The afternoon session started in a similar vein to the morning with a string of victories by India’s women.

At flyweight (W51kg) Sakshi Sakshi used her size and reach advantage smartly to keep England’s Ruby White at bay and pick her off with long range shots to secure a unanimous victory.

A see-sawing lightweight (W60kg) contest between Priya Priya and Canada’s Marie-Bathoul Al-Ahmadieh could have gone either way, but it was the Indian boxer that prevailed 4:1 thanks to a decisive final round.

The women’s light-middleweight final between India’s Arundhati Choudhary and Chantelle Reid of England was a tightly matched, cagey affair between two top-class boxers, ranked two and five in the world respectively. In the end, the judges’ favoured Choudhary’s work on the counter attack as she took the bout on all five cards.

Once again, it was Australia that halted the Indian juggernaut as Emma-Sue Greentree got the upper-hand in her middleweight bout with Lovlina Borgohain.  The bout swung both ways with Greentree making a strong start, only for the Indian to pin her back in the second.

However, the Australian’s work rate and aggression made the difference as she took the final round on four of the cards, to win the bout on a 4:1 split.

The final three bouts of the Games featured India’s men in a series of closely fought contests.

At lightweight (M60kg), Sachin Sachin, appeared to be in trouble against Namibia’s Tryagain Morning Ndevelo but a strong final round by the Indian convinced four of the judges to score it in his favour and hand him the win on a 3:2 split.

England’s Dimeji Shittu started strongly in the light-heavyweight (M80kg) final taking the first round with all five judges, however India’s Ankush Ankush used all his experience to work his way back into the bout and take the win on a 4:1 split.

The 187th and final bout of the Games, served up a mouthwatering clash between the two nations that had dominated the boxing competition as India’s Narender Narender took on Damar Thomas of England at super-heavyweight (M90kg).

After a day in which India had got the upper hand, Thomas managed to secure a degree of revenge for England, as he bossed all three rounds to secure a unanimous 5:0 victory and take home the final gold medal of the competition.
