Carlo Paalam dominated Shukur Ovezov of Turkmenistan, securing a 5-0 decision win in the men’s 57 kg category at the Olympic Qualifying Tournament in Bangkok, Thailand, on Tuesday night.
Paalam was initially scheduled to face Ovezov in the first World Boxing Qualification Tournament last March, but an injury from a previous match forced him to withdraw. Now fully recovered, the Tokyo Olympics silver medalist is determined to advance further as he will next compete against Artur Bazeyan of Armenia in the round of 16 on Thursday, May 30.
Meanwhile, Hergie Bacyadan hacked out a similar 5-0 decision victory over Spain’s Dunia Mas Martinez in the women’s 75 kg category, also advancing to the round of 16. She is set to face Veronika Nakota of Hungary on Saturday afternoon, June 1. “Hergie moved better and set up her attacks more effectively compared to her last tournament,” said Marcus Manalo, secretary-general of the Association of Boxing Alliances in the Philippines. “Hopefully, that carries over against tougher competition in the next rounds.”“From the first minute, Hergie established her game plan, so the only instruction was to stay cautious and maintain her performance,” said ABAP coach Ronald Chavez.
