The Beijing Games organizer has released the schedule of boxing matches, putting middleweight Angkhan Chomphuphuang as the first Thai athlete in the ring with a match on August 9. The 29th Olympic boxing event will be held at the Workers’ Stadium in Beijing from August 9 to 24. The matches are scheduled on either 1.30-4.45 pm or 7.00-10.15 pm local time, or 2.30-5.34 pm and 8.00-11.15 pm Thai time. Middleweight newcomer Angkhan Chomphuphuang will be the first Thai boxer to fight as his match is scheduled in the first period of Saturday August 9, unless he is awarded a random bye. Light welterweight Manus Boonjumnong and welterweight Non Boonjumnong will have their first matches on Sunday August 10. Manus, a 2004 Olympic gold medalist, is the older brother of Non. Monday August 11 will be the matches of featherweight Sailom Adi and lightweight Pichai Sayotha. Tuesday August 12, the Thai national holiday and the birthday of Her Majesty Queen Sirikit, will see matches of two other Thai boxers, flyweight Somjit Jongjohor and bantamweight Worapoj Petchkhoom. The latter fighter has won a silver medal in Athens. Wednesday August 13 is scheduled for the match of light flyweight Amnat Ruenroeng, who won a bronze medal from the World Championship and an excellent newcomer award from Thai newspaper Siam Sport. About 28-29 athletes will compete in each weight class, with 4-5 boxers in each class receiving a bye and advancing to the next round automatically. The byes will be decided by a random draw in the morning of August 9.
