The Team Philippines Chef de Mission is clearly unbothered by the looming challenges in this multisport event for non-Olympic disciplines, with the Filipinos even exuding confidence more than being the usual look of underdogs.
Some bets were even marked and respected by foreign rivals, which is a rare occasion given that this Chengdu meet is expected to gather the finest 7,000 athletes from around the world.
And he sure has the numbers in his mind, but the muay thai president would rather be modest than overassuring.
