Irish Magno has gone down to the history books as the first Filipina boxer ever to qualify for the Olympics.
She, however, has never won a gold medal at the Southeast Asian Games, settling for a silver last December, another silver in 2015 and a bronze in 2013. At the AIBA World Championships, she never went beyond the opening preliminaries in 2014, 2016 and 2019.
