POC urges Olympian-turned-pro to keep eyes on prize

THE Philippine Olympic Committee (POC) hopes that Tokyo Games-bound Eumir Felix Marical will keep his eyes on the prize of bringing home the Philippine’s first Olympic gold medal even after turning pro and signing up with MP Promotions for a four-year deal with a two-year extension if he becomes a world champion.

The Philippines’ Eumir Felix Marcial trades punches with South Korea’s Kim Jinjea during the 18thAsian Games in Jakarta, Indonesia.
