Jordan will be in a medal hunt at the ASBC Asian U22 & Youth Boxing Championships
Jordan will send a strong team to the ASBC Asian U22 & Youth Boxing Championships which will be starting in Astana, Kazakhstan soon.
Jordan hosted the 2022 editions of the ASBC Asian Elite Boxing Championships and the ASBC Asian Youth & Junior Boxing Championships as well which made a big impact in the country together with the successful qualification events in 2021.
Jordan has never claimed any medals in the history of the ASBC Asian U22 Boxing Championships therefore their main target is at least a podium place in Astana. Their youth boxers claimed two bronze medals in the last ASBC Asian Youth Boxing Championships.
