Career

Tipon also competed at the 2005 Southeast Asian Games held in Bacolod, Philippines and won the gold medal in the same division against Tangtong Klongjian of Thailand 24-5.[1]

At the Asian Games 2006 he upset Worapoj Petchkoom and beat Han Soon Chul of Korea in the final 21-10.[2]

At the World Championships 2007 he lost in the first round against Worapoj Petchkoom 5:13.

As of 2012, Tipon is now a full time trainer for people who wanted to play boxing. He stated that: "Gusto kong magustuhan ng tao ang paglalaro ng boxing kasabay nito ay ang Ibahagi sa kanila ang salita ng Diyos" ("I'd like people to enjoy the sport of boxing and at the same time Share with them the word of God ")

gollark: There is also the "secondary processor exemption" thing, which caused the Librem people to waste a lot of time on having a spare processor on their SoC load a blob into the SoC memory controller from some not-user-accessible flash rather than just using the main CPU cores. This does not improve security because you still have the blob running with, you know, full control of RAM, yet RYF certification requires solutions like this.
gollark: It would be freer™, in my opinion, to have all the firmware distributed sanely via a package manager, and for the firmware to be controllable by users, than to have it entirely hidden away.
gollark: So you can have proprietary firmware for an Ethernet controller or bee apifier or whatever, but it's only okay if you deliberately stop the user from being able to read/write it.
gollark: No, it's how they're okay with things having proprietary firmware *but only if the user cannot interact with it*.
