In March 2022, Le Huu Toan excelled in winning the Boxing WBA Asian championship in the Minimumweight. In the battle of belt, he defeated the Thai Puncher Kitidech Hirunsuk after 12 stressful matches to win WBA belt from the opponent himself.
Thanks to this championship, Le Huu Toan has officially reached the top 10 on the WBA World Chart in March. Notably, this is the highest achievement that a male boxing boxing of Vietnam has achieved ever.
After the WBA Asian championship, Le Huu Toan attended the Boxing Championship of the strong teams nationwide 2022 and Binh Duong delegation in the 46kg weight class. Because Huu Toan's 48 kg weight is not in the 31st SEA Games competition category, this Huu Toan has to seek opportunities in professional tournaments such as WBA or national tournaments.
After easily approaching the final, Huu Toan had a lot of difficulties before the opponent of Nghe An team and boxer Duong Xuan Trong. Xuan Trong is the one who defeated the monument of Minh Phat in the semi -finals.
Despite being more appreciated than the opponent, Huu Toan let Xuan Trong play overwhelming and win the score after the first half. However, with the level of the Asian champion, the puncher born in 1993 regained the game and played overwhelming in the remaining 2 rounds. At the end of 3 rounds, the final victory belonged to Le Huu Toan, helping Binh Duong delegation win the second gold medal at the tournament. This is also the third consecutive year to win the national gold medal.
