The 21 year old , a rising star of the Amateur Boxing Alliance of the Philippines under its president Ricky Vargas, is a product of a nationwide grassroots

development program and had showed his undoubted skill in the round of 16 when he reasserted his superiority over Thailand’s Doncha Thathai whom he beat in the last South East Asian Games with a fine all-round performance and as expected triumphed over his Nepalese challenger who had some power but didn't have the overall skill of Fernandez.

Ronnie, no disrespect, but all I know about the Asian games is, they are in Incheon and two Pilipino guys are involved. The only scope relates to thier opponents. Where is Incheon? Who else is there? If Ronnie is getting his info second hand, he is not there, then I want more info. I need to dig up more data, I'm not upset if a Korean wins, or a Japanese.
