Association of Boxing Alliances in the Philippines secretary general Marcus Manalo said expectations are high for the Filipino pugs after managing to qualify the biggest boxing delegation since the 1996 Atlanta Olympics. Three of those qualifiers -- Nesthy Petecio, Carlo Paalam and Eumir Marcial -- were medalists in the 2020 Tokyo Games.
The trio of Petecio, Paalam and Marcial, who won two silver and one bronze medal in Tokyo, will be joined by first-timers Aira Villegas and Hergie Bacyadan this time. Villegas, a bronze medalist at the 2019 Southeast Asian Games, earned a berth in the women’s 50kg at the 1st world qualification in Italy, while Bacyadan caught the last bus in the women’s 75kg at the 2nd qualification in Thailand over the weekend.
