Unlike the 31 SEA Games, the Boxing SEA Games 32 program will only have 3 weight classes for women: 54kg, 63.5kg and 75kg. This makes the Vietnamese Women's Boxing Team coaching must make adjustments to select the best shape athletes, aiming to conquer the next SEA Games.
In the weight of 54kg, the chosen person is Nguyen Thi Tam. With the level of a world's leading puncher, Nguyen Thi Tam is capable of competing in SEA Games, despite her, she will have to fight. The strongest opponents in the way of Vietnamese boxers to the last match are most likely representatives of Thailand and the Philippines.
Regarding the weight of 63.5kg women, the chosen face is Ha Thi Linh (Hanoi). In recent years, Ha Thi Linh has competed 66-67kg of women's weight, but her experience and performance has been highly appreciated. But with Ha Thi Linh chosen, Boxing Vietnam will have to eliminate 2 defending champions SEA Games Vuong Thi Vy and Tran Thi Linh.
Finally, the representative of the 75kg weight class is Nguyen Thi Phuong Hoai (Binh Duong). In domestic tournaments, Phuong Hoai often plays over 81kg of women. Therefore, in order to be eligible to play at the SEA Games, the female fighter of An Giang had to squeeze quite a lot. However, she achieved a good condition to fight at the next SEA Games.
On April 15, the Vietnam Boxing team will leave Thailand to train for 2 weeks. This trip consists of 11 boxers, including 3 female athletes and 8 male athletes.
