Vijender offered to return the WBO Oriental super middleweight title that he won by beating Zulpikar.
"I wanted to give a message by giving away the belt so that the tension at the border between India and China reduces. The environment at the border is very bad at the moment. I wanted to give a message of peace and I hope their media (Chinese) and people will get the message," Vijender told NDTV.
Soldiers of India and China have been locked in a stand-off near the Sikkim sector since June.
