Malaysian faces Wuttichai and Suarez in his path to grab gold

MALAYSIA’S Khir Akyazlan Azmi has to deal with an Olympic boxer and a former Asian Games champion at next month’s Kuala Lumpur SEA Games.

The 25-year-old two-time bronze medallist has never reached the final in the Games. And Khir expects the two favourites – Wuttichai Masuk of Thailand and Charyl Suarez of the Philippines – to stand in his way for a place in the 64kg final.
