Veteran Charly Suarez will join top gun Eumir Felix Marcial on the six-man boxing team that will attempt to retain the overall title in the 29th Southeast Asian Games in Malaysia next month.
Suarez, the perennial best bet at lightweight, will move up in weight and compete at light-welter while Marcial will try his luck at middleweight as Malaysia organizers don’t have events in their original divisions.
Other members are light-fly Carlo Paalam, fly Ian Clark Bautista, bantam Mario Fernandez and Fil-British light-heavy John Marvin.
