The Bulgarian boxer is now in the top eight of the race after he won with ease a match versus Batamir Gambold of Mongolia in the 52-kg weight class. At the quarterfinals he faces Massoud Yusifzade of Azerbaijan. A possible win of the Bulgarian will provide him with a quota for the Youth Olympic Games in Nanjing, China, due in August. After Daniel Asenov, another Bulgarian boxer qualified for the quarterfinals of the championships – Nikolay Chavdarov in the 75-kg weight class. He defeated Mohammed Mabruki of Tunisia. Chavdarov’s rival in the battle for a quota at the Nanjing Games will be Ukrainian Ramil Gadjiev.
