I actually live in the united states but I'm not a citizen. I want to turn professional one day but I heard from my friend that we never won any gold medal and I thought maybe I should focus on that. I'm already 22. I plan on putting everything I've got and become really good with boxing and turn pro at the age of 25. But then I remember that's the year that Olympics will be held and maybe I'd give it a try.
first and foremost, you'd have to convince the people that make up the Philippine Olympic committee.
I suggest you take a video of your fights. Different videos i mean. Make it total to 12 rounds. Upload it somewhere and let the Paclanders see your performance and make you the hottest topic. From there maybe we can help you get endorsed under the tutelage of Donaire Sr. or the Penalosa brothers or if you get lucky maybe "The Man" himself Manny Pacquiao.
This is the shortest way to do it i guess. Or since Pacman will be in the US for his training this Oct 24th, and you think you are now capable of convincing everyone of your ring prowess, maybe you can submit a video of your fights to Buboy Fernandez (only Buboy) and seek his approval. Leave your name and contact number to him.
Who knows. You might be the first Filipino to bring home a gold medal from the Olympics which Pacman himself was not able to achieve.
