Boxers Petecio, Paalam to carry Phl flag in Paris

"We based it on the performances of our athletes in the Tokyo Games. They (Paalam and Petecio) were the best performers among our returning Olympic bets," said Philippine Olympic Committee president Abraham "Bambol" Tolentino on their choices on who will carry the country's colors during the Paris Games opening ceremonies on July 26.

Paalam and Petecio delivered two of the four medals won by the Philippines in what's easily its best showing in the quadrennial games during the Tokyo edition in 2021.
