Two brothers from Vadodara, both Gujarat State boxing champions. Trained by Coach Rajneesh Shukla at The Spear MMA & Fitness Club.
Utkarsh is a Class 10 student at Prince AshokRaje Gaekwad School (PARG), Manjalpur, Vadodara. At the SGFI State Level boxing competition in September 2026, representing Vadodara district, he won every bout before the final bell.
His semi-final was the hardest test. His opponent was a two-time State Champion and two-time National player. After two close rounds, Utkarsh kept up the pressure in the third until the referee stopped the contest. In the final he needed only one round.

Moksha first made his name in powerlifting. At the National Sub-Junior & Junior Classic Powerlifting Championship 2025 in Kolhapur he finished overall first in the 105 kg Sub-Junior (raw) class, won two golds and a bronze, and set two national records, including a 271 kg deadlift. He held those records through 2025, until they were later broken.
He then turned to boxing and won gold in the Open +92 kg category at the Khel Mahakumbh 2025-26 State Level competition, organised by the Sports Authority of Gujarat. His quarter-final opponent withdrew; in the semi final he faced a boxer with more than ten years in the ring, and he won both the semi final and the final by RSC in the first round. He is studying for a Bachelor of Physical Education and Sports at Parul University, Vadodara.
