Pakistan’s Usman Wazir wins 19th international world ranking fight

ISLAMABAD: Pakistani boxer Usman Wazir has secured another important victory on the international stage, winning his 19th international world-ranking fight and extending his successful run in professional boxing.

Wazir confirmed his latest achievement while expressing pride over defeating an Indonesian boxer in the bout.

“I have won my 19th international fight against an Indonesian boxer,” Wazir said after the victory.

The Pakistani fighter dedicated his latest win to the personnel of the Pakistan Armed Forces and police, acknowledging their service and sacrifices.

He also dedicated the victory to those who lost their lives in terrorist attacks in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

Wazir’s latest success adds another milestone to his professional boxing career and continues his efforts to raise Pakistan’s profile in international boxing. His victories have attracted attention at home, particularly among boxing fans following the country’s representation in international competitions.

The boxer has previously celebrated major victories by dedicating them to Pakistan’s armed forces and the families of those killed in acts of terrorism.

His latest win against the Indonesian opponent carries particular significance as it came in a world-ranking contest, giving the Pakistani boxer another opportunity to strengthen his standing on the international boxing scene.

Wazir’s achievement also highlights the growing interest in professional boxing in Pakistan, where athletes continue to seek greater international exposure despite limited resources and infrastructure compared with leading boxing nations.

Following the victory, messages of support and congratulations are expected from fans and sports circles across the country.

For Wazir, however, the result was about more than another number on his professional record. By dedicating the win to security personnel and victims of terrorism, he used the occasion to pay tribute to those he believes have made sacrifices for the country.

The victory marks another chapter in Wazir’s international career as he looks ahead to further challenges in the professional boxing circuit.
