The 28-year-old Latiborne Filipina boxer Ira Villegas is now aiming for her next opponent,
00:07
the second seed in the women's 50-kilogram division, Romay Sabualam of Algeria,
00:12
in the upcoming round of 16 of the 2024 Paris Olympics Women's Light Flyweight Boxing Match this coming Friday.
00:20
Just last Monday, her Olympic debut was a good start for the 2019 Southeast Asian Games Bronze Medalist.
00:28
The Moroccan boxer Yasmin Motaki won the match via unanimous decision in the round of 32.
00:34
According to 1996 Pinoy Olympian boxer and now National Women's Boxing Team coach Reinaldo Galido,
00:41
they will now change the style used by Villegas against the Algerian opponent.
00:46
Of course, if he will still do that, we will have a hard time in the next match.
00:51
Villegas needs to be there.
00:56
He is not giving his full power and he is not activating his lead hand.
01:01
He really needs to be there in his next fight.
01:06
Because the next opponent is Algeria, the style of Algeria is still the same.
01:10
So he really needs to use his lead hand and his combinations.
01:18
Villegas has no time to waste to continue his good momentum this year,
01:24
following his winning of the bronze medal.
01:27
In the women's 50kg division of the 2024 Boxing Elite Tournament in February in Spain,
01:32
and the early purchase of the Olympic ticket packet in the Olympic qualifying tournament in Italy last March,
01:39
Galido admitted that the match against the two-time African Championship Titleist will not be easy.
01:45
However, he still has a lot of confidence in Villegas that he will be able to win against the Algerian fighter.
01:52
We were strong in Germany last month.
01:55
We were also in the training camp in Germany.
01:59
We saw that he is really strong.
02:02
I think he can handle this match.
02:08
He can win.
02:10
Villegas needs two more wins to celebrate the bronze medal finish of the Philippines.
02:17
Meanwhile, the women's 57kg division of the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Silver Medalist, Nesty Petesio,
02:23
was able to fight tonight in the round of 32 match.
02:27
While the men's 80kg division, women's 75kg division, and men's 57kg division match tomorrow will be led by
02:36
Tokyo Games bronze medalist Ymir Marcial, 2023 Wovenom World Championships gold medalist Hergie Bakyadan,
02:43
and Tokyo Olympics silver medalist Carlo Paalam.
