After Truong Dinh Hoang announced his farewell to the high -performance sports arena, Boxing Vietnam currently has no fighter enough to “hold” 80kg male “.

Weight +92kg Men: Doan Ngoc Minh Hieu (Army)
As a national championship in the last 3 tournaments he attended, Doan Ngoc Minh Hieu has a good quality of a 20 -year -old fighter.
