Nishant Dev wins 2nd professional fight in Super Welterweight bout in New York

In Boxing, Indian pugilist Nishant Dev won his second professional fight, defeating Josue Silva via unanimous decision 60-54 in the Super Welterweight bout at Madison Square Garden in New York. The 24-year-old, who recently turned professional, was victorious in his debut match in January this year, winning against Alton Wiggins via first-round stoppage. Nishant gained popularity during the 2024 Paris Olympics, where he made it to the quarterfinals before narrowly losing to Mexico’s Marco Verde.
