00:00There are questions surrounding Ling Yuting's gender eligibility this time at the Olympics.
00:05How has she responded to pressure?
00:35If you keep asking me, I'll tell you that I was invited by the Peng family. I didn't sign up for this, okay?
00:40How is Ling Yuting's overall condition in Paris right now?
00:44This time, we have a special training center for the Chinese team.
00:50We also have physical training equipment.
00:55You can take a look.
00:56We have more control over our training and preparation time.
01:03So we have plenty of time to adjust our training rhythm and rest.
01:10I think we adjusted pretty well.
01:14Ling Yuting is set to face off against Bulgarian boxer Svetlana Staneva in the quarterfinals.
01:20How is she getting ready for that match?
01:22Actually, the changes on the field are changing all the time.
01:27It's hard to predict how the competitors will do.
01:30But we will try our best to imitate what she has done in previous videos.
01:39She is a very experienced opponent.
01:41Regardless of distance control or punch, she is a very good fighter.
01:48So we hope that Yuting will not be too polite to her.
