Achievement for Lebanese Boxing: Ramzi Wissam Hilal Qualifies for the Olympic Games
Lebanese boxer Ramzi Hilal has achieved a remarkable milestone by qualifying for the Olympic Games, scheduled to take place in Dakar this coming October, competing in the 55 kg weight category.
This qualification comes after a series of outstanding performances, most notably at the Asian Games held in Manama, where he secured fifth place at the Asian level. He also recently participated in the World Cup of the Future Championship in Thailand, one of the qualifying tournaments for the Dakar Olympics, where he delivered an impressive performance that confirmed his strong presence and ability to compete on the international stage.
This achievement marks an important step for Lebanese boxing, especially after an absence of approximately 38 years from the Olympic Games, reflecting the development of the sport in Lebanon and its return to the global arena
