After successfully conquering the Bantamweight IBA World belt, Tran Van Thao will return to play at the National Sports Festival 2022. At the present time, the “The Trigger” is the current runner -up of the 2018 Congress, where he won the 52kg medal in the male.
However, according to the program of Boxing Sports Festival 2022, the 52kg weight class no longer appears. Instead, the Organizing Committee included 2 men's 51kg and 54kg male content. That made Tran Van Thao decided to choose a 54kg weight weight to play.
According to ITHETHAO.vn source, there is one reason that Tran Van Thao decided to choose a 54kg weight competition. He does not want to squeeze too deep because it can affect the performance. Health conditions do not allow “The Trigger” to squeeze deep weight like in the 31 SEA Games.
Boxing within the framework of the National Sports Congress 2022 takes place from 12-20 December at Bac Ninh Stadium. According to information from the Organizing Committee, Boxing is one of the competitions with the most medals in this year's congress with 27 sets of medals, specifically as follows:
