The Boxer Who Fell Through the Cracks: Anthony Villanueva
"As Villanueva stands on the 2nd place platform, a place where no other Filipino has ever stood, he must be beaming with pride. This is for his father, who he has at last surpassed. This is for his country, that he loves and that now, because of his feats, loves him. Villanueva stands there, a silver medal around his neck, listening to the Soviet anthem, glowing from the inside. He does not know yet that he will die in abject poverty, forgotten by everyone applauding him. Right now, Anthony Villanueva's whole future is ahead of him."
