[Reporter Liang Weiming/Comprehensive Report] The 2023 International Boxing Championship national player selection competition has ended at the Kaohsiung National Training Center. Li Chengwei and Lin Yuan, who used to be the training partners of the famous female generals Lin Yuting and Chen Nianqin, this time it is their turn to be the protagonists, each winning the World Championship National player qualification.

When Li Chengwei was studying in Yingge Industrial and Commercial, he was recruited by his coach Zeng Ziqiang to be Lin Yuting's training partner. The latter had contributed to the Asian Championships, the World Championships gold medal, the Asian Games bronze medal, and even the Tokyo Olympics. He was also the team's training partner for the longest time one.

This time Lee Seung-Wei was chosen as the men's 57kg national player. He also got tickets for the Hangzhou Asian Games before. In the past, he was suppressed by Chen Baiyi in every selection and even the National Games. He hadn't won against the opponent for 6 years. Served as a substitute for sports and continued to hone in the training team. Last year, he finally defeated his old enemy in the Asian Games selection. "I have improved my confidence and fulfilled the promise I made with my psychological counselor. I promised him to give myself a goal and fight again." Lin Yuting said with a smile: " I chatted with him a lot, and I don’t know which part worked for him, but it may be that he also participated in my defeat in the East Olympics, and the process of reviving and winning the gold medal in the World Championships inspired me. I am very grateful to him for his past efforts, and I am even more happy that he made a breakthrough. "
