As noted by Ithethao.vn, Many boxers and their host units surprised the opponents from the date of registration. They adjust their weight different from themselves in previous tournaments. This makes the athletes and their units have more opportunities to compete for medals, towards high achievements.
One of the most surprised boxers is Luu Thi Duyen, the boxer who is playing for the Ninh Binh delegation. The former SEA Games champion registered to attend this tournament in a weight of 66kg.

The weight of 81kg of women, which Luu Thi Duyen played earlier this year, had a very heavy candidate for the championship, Nguyen Thi Phuong Hoai. Those weighing classes also had many other hard boxers, so Luu Thi Duyen pressed down to 66kg. This is also the approximation of her weight at the peak.
Luu Thi Duyen is not the only boxing athlete forced to decrease around 20kg to attend this congress. Martial artist Nguyen Van Diem (Army) also surprised many opponents when he registered to compete in a weight of 67kg male weight. In previous years, he often played 86kg weight and had very good achievements.
With the pressing down to play 67kg male weight, Van easily has been sure to win at least 1 bronze medal. On the day of the competition on December 15, the army fighters were in the next round because his opponent gave up. In the semi -finals, Van easily confronted the current national champion Nguyen Van Hai.
Also in the weight of 67kg male, Nguyen Duc Ngoc (Hanoi) also surprised when registering to play. Before that, he often fought in the weight of 71kg. With Duc Ngoc playing in a lighter weight class, the Hanoi delegation also had a boxer in the semi -finals when Ngoc Thang Ngoc Duc (Bac Ninh) in the quarterfinals.
