The coaching staff of the Vietnam national team muay said that fighter Nguyen Tran Duy Nhat will go to China to participate in the 2025 World Games on August 5.
Ms. Tu Thi Le Na, in charge of muay (Vietnam Department of Physical Education and Sports) said: "This year is the second time that boxer Duy Nhat has competed in the World Games.
However, we do not put pressure on the performance target for athletes. Our requirement is that Duy Nhat strive to compete for the highest achievement".
Nguyen Tran Duy Nhat is the only fighter in Vietnamese sports to be awarded a place in muay at the 2025 World Games. Recently, Duy Nhat has switched to coaching.

In the above tournament, the Vietnamese fighter won all three matches to convincingly hold the number one position.
The 57kg male muay weight class of the 2025 World Games has 8 athletes participating. The matches began on August 8. On August 10, the bronze medal and gold medal matches of the weight class will take place.
