MANILA, Philippines — Hangad ni Ian Clark Bautista na makahirit ng tiket sa third round sa men’s featherweight (57 kgs.) division ng 2019 AIBA World Bo­xing Championships sa Yekaterinburg, Russia.

Haharapin ng Asian Championships bronze medalist na si Bautista si Mirko Jehiel Cuello ng Argentina na nakahirit ng opening-round bye.

Target ni Bautista na masundan ang kanyang 5-0 unanimous de­cision win kay Viliam Tan­ko ng Slovakia sa first round.

Nakatakdang sumalang kagabi sina two-time Southeast Asian Games champion Eumir Fe­lix Marcial at Carlo Pa­alam sa kani-kanilang dibisyon.

Sasabak si Marcial kon­tra kay No. 2 seed Tarik Allali ng Morroco sa men’s middleweight (75 kgs.) at lalabanan ni Paalam sa men’s flyweight class (52 kgs.) si Istavan Izaka ng Hunga­ry.

Una nang nawala si­ Ku­­ala Lumpur Southeast Asian Games gold me­da­list John Marvin na nagpasyang mag-withdraw sa second round ng light heavyweight division matapos magtamo ng sugat sa ibabaw ng kilay.

Yumuko naman si James Palicte sa first round ng men’s light wel­terweight (63 kgs.) kay Jose Manuel Wafara ng Colombia via 0-5 una­nimous decision loss.

Target ng tropa na ma­lampasan ang isang tansong medalyang na­ku­ha ng Pilipinas noong 2015 edisyon.
