Gold could be the color of choice for this year for the DR's boxing team. Juan Carlos Payano and Argenis Nunez will both fight for gold on Saturday after they beat their rivals from Mexico and Brazil. Payano's victory was much easier than expected after defeating his opponent Braulio Alvarez 20 to 4 in the 51 KG weight class. Nunez had a tougher battle beating the Brazilian boxer Glaucelio Abreu 19 to 14.
In the karate 80-kilo weight category, Juan Carlos Valdez won another bronze medal for the DR.
Table tennis stars continue their strong performances after Nieves Xue and Jennifer Quian won their respective matches in the first round of the individual tournament.
In bowling, Rolando Antonio Sebelen and Victor Richard have managed to move on to the second round and are among the 32 best bowlers in the Pan American games.
It also seems like Dominican star sprinter Super Felix is almost back to top shape and is proving it during the games, which are being held in the Brazilian city of Rio de Janeiro.
