Atheyna Bylon was dominant and in great form defeated Ecuador’s Ingrith Maldonado unanimously (5-0) and qualified for the semifinals of female boxers up to -75 kilograms at the Pan American Games in Santiago 2023 in Chile.
With the victory, Bylon placed among the four best female boxers of these Pan American Championships in her category and secured at least a bronze medal, while in Olympic boxing the medal goes to the semi-finalists.
Let us remind you that the last medal in Panamanian boxing at the Pan American Games was in Indianapolis in 1987.
But Panama’s Bylon is not satisfied, expressing that she will look for a win in the semi-finals when she faces Viviana Dos Santos of Brazil this Thursday to advance to the gold medal final.
According to the Panamanian Olympic Committee (COP), the two finalists will receive a ticket to the 2024 Paris Olympics.
In the second match, Yuliett Iveth Hinestroza of Panama was defeated by Carolina Barbosa of Brazil 5-0 in the quarterfinals.
