KOCHI: Dawn breaks early at the Regional Sports Center (RSC) in Kadavanthra, where grunts and shuffling screeches from its boxing academy welcome one. From eight-year-old children to adults, both men and women, follow the stern instructions given by their coach. Their zest fills the air. Boxing has always been popular in the city, but at a latent level. Now, however, it is on the rise and getting mainstreamed. Also, across Kerala, there is a welcome trend of more women and girls entering the boxing arena.
