Al-Majidi said to Agency: “We apologize for not completing the journey and for not being able to represent our homeland, Iraq, in the upcoming competitions for several reasons, most notably the long, arduous distances and the high costs of the participations that made it difficult for us to continue, and for which we did not receive support commensurate with the effort we are making and the expenses of which we bear part.” “.
He added that, during his representation of the Iraqi national team, he achieved the Arab Youth gold medal and the bronze medal in the Arab Championship in Algeria, in addition to obtaining fifth place in the World Youth Championship in Spain in a tournament in which 73 boxers representing the world’s national teams participated. He concluded his speech by saying: “We wish success to the boxers of our national team in the upcoming competitions.” “.
