World U19 Boxing Championships in Budva

Overview

The Open World U19 Boxing Championships held in Budva, Montenegro, featured notable performances from Montenegrin boxers.

Vuk Dabović, competing in the 65kg category, secured a comeback victory against Turkmenistan’s Begenč Kakamuradov. After losing the first round 5:0, Dabović won the second round 3:2 and the third round 4:1, ultimately winning by a 3:2 split decision.

Matija Roganović, competing in the 85kg category, advanced to the quarterfinals after defeating Italy’s Luca Kasarsa with a 3:2 decision. During the match, Roganović forced the referee to count Kasarsa twice following heavy strikes in the first round. Despite what was described as controversial scoring from certain judges, the victory marked Roganović's third win against Kasarsa this year.

In the quarterfinals, Roganović faced Cuba’s Julio Chibas at the Mediterranean Sports Center. Although Roganović mounted a strong offensive surge in the final three minutes, Chibas won the match with a 4:1 judges' decision. Chibas took a narrow 3:2 lead in the first round and dominated the second round, winning all five judges' scores. National team coach Boško Drašković praised Roganović for showing the ‘heart of a champion’ against a representative of a premier boxing school, noting the experience would be invaluable for Montenegrin boxing.
