Tokyo Olympics women’s boxing silver medalist Nesthy Petecio stakes her world-class mettle against Myanmar’s Kay Thwe in the 31st Southeast Asian Games on Wednesday at the Bac Ninh Stadium.
A victory by Ms. Petecio will guarantee her a bronze medal as fellow Olympian Eumir Felix Marcial, who owns a bronze from Tokyo last year, drew a bye on Wednesday and will only fight in Thursday’s quarterfinals against the winner between Peerapat Yeasungnoen of Thailand and Bui Phuoc Tung of Vietnam.
The other Tokyo Olympian, Irish Magno, will collide against Indonesia’s Novita Sinadia on Friday in a women’s flyweight semifinals fight, while Marjon Piañar, who also drew a bye, will fight in Friday’s semifinals in men’s welterweight against either Sarohatua Lumbantobing of Indonesia or Cambodia’s Vy Sophors.
“I’m focusing on my fights for now,” said the 26-year-old Mr. Marcial, who has dominated the middleweight class in the Games since 2015 in Singapore. “Anything can happen here,” Mr. Abnett said. “That Thai boy is very dangerous, but Eumir is training very nicely and he’s fit.”
