Nesthy Petecio came up with a dominant victory over her Indonesian opponent in the women's boxing competitions to snare the gold in the 32nd Southeast Asian Games on Sunday.

Petecio's gold medal victory was the fourth gold medal for Philippine boxing in the Cambodia SEA Games.
Ian Clark Bautista started the gold rush for the boxers with a win in the men’s featherweight final on Saturday.
