It is the first discipline corresponding to the activity on Wednesday, August 7, but, due to the time difference with Mexico, the competition can be seen from 11:30 p.m. on Tuesday.

Marco Verde will compete in the boxing final in Paris 2024 next Friday, August 9.

The meeting will be at 1:30 p.m. (Central Mexico time).

Looking for the Golden One

By unanimous decision, the boxer from Sinaloa advances to the final of the -71 kilogram category of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, where he will seek to win the gold medal against the Kazakh, Asadxoʻja Moʻydinxoʻjayev.

Second round for the British

Despite being a very close and disputed round, the British Lewis Richardson takes the cards and leaves everything even for the last round.

Marco Verde wins the first round 30-20 in his duel against the British.

With a sure medal

It should be noted that, as there was no duel to decide third place, Marco Verde has already secured at least the bronze medal (in case of losing to the Briton). However, he will try to change the colour of his medal and enter the dispute for the gold against Asadxoʻja Moʻydinxoʻjayev.

Time for Marco Verde to step into the ring in search of an Olympic final

However, the Mexican mermaids are not in a position for medals, ranking eighth overall with 590.3365.

This Wednesday at 11:30am, the third and final routine will take place: acrobatic.

Mexico is currently in sixth place with 590.3365 points, Italy and Canada surpass the Mexican sirens.

The Mexican delegation representing the flight of the ‘monarch butterflies’ performed an incredible free routine from the Paris 2024 Aquatics Center to add a score of 69.2m, being the best, which temporarily takes them to fourth position in the competition.

The Mexican mermaids hope to win the team gold medal by doing so at the 2023 Central American Games in San Salvador and the 2023 Pan American Games in Santiago, Chile.
