It is still annoying to think about the defeat of Enmanuel Reyes Pla against Julio La Cruz in the quarterfinals of the Games. The 28-year-old Spaniard was robbed of the medal against his former teammate on the Cuban team. Far from being anchored in the past, The profit look to the future and that future is once again La Cruz. They could be seen in the final of the World Cup in Serbia. History writes itself, but before Reyes Pla must begin the path of redemption.
Enmanuel, the only member of the National Team still alive after the elimination of Adrián Thiam this Monday, must first confirm the medal this Tuesday. To do this, he faces in the quarterfinals the American Jamar Talley, which is one of the seeds of the tournament. Surprisingly, Reyes Pla did not enter that select group. He has had to dispute more lawsuits, but they have served him to shoot. “The preparation has not been as we would have wanted,” said the Spaniard in the previous one. The proximity of the Games and the World Cup weighed on him, but he has not shown it in the ring. He has won the two lawsuits that he has had to dispute so far with great solvency.
The victory would be very important for the fighter. It would do poetic justice and allow him to seek total redemption before La Cruz, and it would also be historic for Spain. Only Enrique Rodríguez Cal, in Havana 1974, has hung a metal (bronze) in a World Cup. The Prophet cites history to redeem himself from the injustice of the Tokyo Games.
