Day two of boxing at the World Boxing U19 Championships in Budva saw 40 bouts take place across two sessions.

Uzbekistan enjoyed the most success with its boxers earning five wins, followed by Italy with four. Bulgaria, India, Kazakhstan, Mexico, Romania, Russia and Ukraine picked up two wins while seventeen nations picked up one win. Action was fought across six weight classes.

In the evening session, Italy’s Amelia Zamana got the better of Poland’s Oliwia Malyszek in the women’s 65kg, with a 5:0 unanimous decision win. Lithuania’s Luka Vitkute picked up a 4:1 split decision victory over Belgium’s Stacey Kaersoel.

Montenegrin Vuk Dabovic secured a win on home soil in the men’s 65kg. He got the better of Turkmenistan’s Begench Kakamuradov with a close 3:2 split decision. Moldova’s Catalin Mustea earned an RSC win against Canada’s Sonny Meredith.

Earlier in the day, the women’s 54kg took centre stage. Uzbekistan’s Shodiyona Melikuziyeva progressed to the next round courtesy of a 3:2 win over India’s Joyshree Devi Chirom.

Italy’s Daniele Fabi, a European U17 and European U19 Champion, used his experience well against Lebanon’s Adam Ahmad in their men’s 60kg bout. The Italian delivered a first-round stoppage as he marched through to the next round.

Uzbekistan’s Zulfikor Adkhamjonov added to his nation’s strong day two outing, getting the better of Georgia’s 18-year-old Akaki Basaria, claimed a gold medal at the 2025 European U19 Boxing Championships, in the men’s 70kg.

England’s Albe Dowell is the defending European U19 Champion in the men’s 90kg and he confidently beat Latvia’s Markuss Reke, earning two knockdowns in the first round that ended the contest early.
