At the 32nd SEA Games, the goal of Vietnamese Boxing is to win 1 to 2 gold medals. These gold medals are placed on the shoulders of two high-class athletes, Nguyen Thi Tam and Nguyen Van Duong. However, in their respective competitions, Tam and Duong were both unfortunately eliminated.
Ha Thi Linh in the final match
Therefore, the hope of winning gold medals at this year's SEA Games is for other athletes such as Ha Thi Linh, Bui Phuoc Tung or Nguyen Linh Phung, who are highly regarded in the weight classes they participate in.
Not disappointing the expectations of the coaching staff and fans, 2 of the 3 names above, Ha Thi Linh and Bui Phuoc Tung, competed very well this afternoon, May 13, to bring home 2 gold medals for Vietnamese Boxing.
The coaching staff constantly encouraged Ha Thi Linh.
In the final of the 60-63kg weight class, Ha Thi Linh defeated her opponent from the Philippines to win the gold medal. This is a very valuable gold medal for Ha Thi Linh after a long time of returning to the regional arena. The athlete from Lao Cai won the gold medal at the 27th SEA Games in 2013 in Myanmar, but then she got married and had 2 children. In 2023, Ha Thi Linh returned to the SEA Games arena, immediately showing her talent and desire.
Along with Ha Thi Linh, Bui Phuoc Tung also had an impressive performance earlier when he knocked out his Thai opponent to win the gold medal in the men's 71 kg weight class.

Thus, with 2 gold medals of Ha Thi Linh and Bui Phuoc Tung, the Vietnamese Boxing team has completed the target set at the 32nd SEA Games of winning 1 to 2 gold medals. It was a difficult SEA Games for the Vietnamese Boxing team, but with the efforts of the athletes and coaching staff, they overcame difficulties, competed successfully and contributed to the overall achievements of the Vietnamese Sports Delegation.
