In sport now.
A NZ Commonwealth boxer has his sights set on the gold medal
for the 81kg weight class.
Joe Glen watched him train in Christchurch today.
The trainer agrees that Reece has the ability
to bring back a medal this year.
Reece was just 11 when his uncle put the gloves on him.
10 years later, he is selected for the NZ boxing team.
One thing that raises his spirit and pride
is the support he receives from his job and managers.
Reece's leaves with the NZ team
for the Commonwealth Games in New Delhi in October.
We will find out then if these hands will bring back a medal.
Joe Glen, Te Karere.
