BANGKOK, Thailand – Josie Gabuco proved detractors wrong as she took the gold medal in the light flyweight division of the Asian Boxing Championships Friday at the Indoor Stadium of the Hua Mark Sports Complex here.
A 32-year-old mother and member of the national boxing team for 15 years, Gabuco was considered by some to have been past her prime but in her bouts here, including the finals against Kim Hyang Mi of North Korea, she displayed her usual speed and guile to advance to the championship and win the gold.
At press time, light heavyweight Fil-Briton John Tupaz Marvin was battling against Bek Nurmaganbet of Kazakhstan for the gold.
Ian Clark Bautista, who recently moved up to bantamweight, earned a bronze medal.
