Ismael Navarro, coach of the Venezuelan national boxing team, was also another of the delegates who expressed his objectives as a delegation for the regional sports fair that begins this coming Friday.
“We come from Sao Paulo, from a preparation before joining the games. We come here to reap the results and we are going to do so, the boys come well prepared. I plan to take one or two gold medals, Venezuelan boxing is going to do its bit because we have worked for that”, commented an enthusiastic Navarro.
With respect to the preparation of the Venezuelan boxers, Navarro emphasized the training base they held in the Rio de Janeiro country.
“They gave us the opportunity to have a preparation base in Brazil and we took advantage of it, it was very fruitful, we held five fights in Brazil, and the boys come well prepared to face the event,” he added.
