00:00The Paris Olympic bronze medallists Nesty Petetio and Ira Villegas promised that they will continue to compete in the competition this year to bring honor to the country.
00:14This is our teammate Rafael Bandairelli.
00:19The boxers Nesty Petetio and Ira Villegas received major awards in the PSA Awards Night last night.
00:29They are the recipients of the President's Award after they won a bronze medal in the Paris Olympics last year.
00:37But of course, their plans to win medals are not yet complete.
00:43According to the former boxer Villegas, this year he will once again flag the flag of the Philippines in the international stage,
00:52particularly in the Southeast Asian Games that will be held in Thailand in December.
00:58There's an upcoming competition like SEA Games. I think that's my major for now.
01:03But I'm looking forward to get another medal for the Philippines.
01:10Petetio will also compete in the 33rd SEA Games and the IBA Women's World Boxing Championships in March.
01:17She promised that she will focus on her training to continue to bring honor to her countrymen.
01:25Of course, I also want the Filipino people to enjoy my every game.
01:30Even when I was in Paris, when I watched my movements there, I was amazed.
01:36I was able to dodge the punches. I hope I can improve my movements and more combinations in the future.
01:46The Achievements of Petetio and Villegas were highly praised by the Association of Boxing Alliances in the Philippines or ABAP Secretary General Marcos Jarwin Manalo.
01:59I'm very happy and very proud of them. We don't take it for granted, the Olympic medal.
02:07It's so hard to qualify in the Olympics and it's even harder to be at the podium
02:13because when you're in the Olympics, it's the best of the best.
02:16Their next victory is the 2024 Paris Olympics.
02:20Nesty, you will compete in the SEA Games, right?
02:23Yes, I will compete in the SEA Games.
02:27They will continue to compete and bring honor to their countrymen.
02:35From Manila Hotel, I'm here with the bronze medalist, Nesty Petetio Rafael Bandairel, for the Filipino athlete, for the new Philippines.
