Paalam guns for boxing gold

Boxing flyweight Carlo Paalam will try to give the Philippines its second gold medal in the Tokyo Olympics when he fights Britain's top boxer today, August 7.

If Paalam wins against Galal Yafai, who is also the 2018 Golden Belt champion in Iasi, Romania, he will also bag the country's first gold in boxing.
