Petecio gives Phl 4th medal in Paris Games

Petecio didn't get it, missing a second straight Olympic final and settling for a bronze being added to her silver from Tokyo in 2021.

"Sobrang labo, sobrang labo talaga," said Petecio, not convinced she lost the fight to young Polish foe Julia Szeremeta.

"Wala siyang clear punch sa third round, 'yung body shots ko, hook ko pumapasok, hindi ko alam kung ano ang nangyari," said Petecio.

The judges saw otherwise, giving the 57-kg semis bout to Szeremeta at 4-1.

With another shot at the gold on the line, Petecio entered the arena determined to get it. First up atop the ring, Petecio prayed in her corner then launched her drive, taking the opening round at 5-0.

But it became a split when Szeremeta fought back and grabbed the second at 4-1, making the finale as the deciding round.
