Christopher Camat height - How tall is Christopher Camat?

Camat qualified for his naturalized Filipino squad in the men's middleweight division (75 kg) at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens by receiving a berth and finishing second behind Kazakhstan's Gennady Golovkin from the Asian Championships in Puerto Princesa, Palawan. Camat was also expected to become the Filipino flag bearer in the opening ceremony, but later surpassed his privilege to fellow boxer Romeo Brin, as he decided to witness his action and prepare fully for the next day's bout. He ousted his opening match to a vastly superior Russian boxer and top medal contender Gaydarbek Gaydarbekov in an effortless decision 13–35.

Recovering from a fatal loss at the Asian Games, Camat added another bronze medal to his career hardware, when he lost the semifinal match to Thailand's Somchai Chimlum in the men's middleweight division at the 2003 Southeast Asian Games in Hanoi, Vietnam.

As a member of the Philippine boxing squad, Camat made his official sporting debut at the 2001 Southeast Asian Games, where he claimed a bronze medal in the light middleweight class. The following year, at the 2002 Asian Games in Busan, South Korea, Camat expectedly failed to surpass Pakistani boxer Kashif Mumtaz Karim in the opening bout with a decisive score of 11–18, despite displaying a clean fight that could have brought him into the medal rounds.

Christopher Camat (born September 7, 1979 in San Manuel, Pangasinan) is a retired amateur Filipino-American boxer. He captured two bronze medals in the middleweight division at the Southeast Asian Games (2001 and 2003), and later represented the Philippines at the 2004 Summer Olympics. Throughout his sporting career, Camat has been training as an elite athlete for Team Caltex Boxing Club under his head coach and mentor Nolito Velasco.

Born and raised in Pangasinan, Camat emigrated to the United States at the age of ten. His father Eduardo left the nation alone for California in 1979, until he petitioned for his wife Mercedes and their three children (including Camat) to join and accompany him. Lasted for two years, Camat's father was deported back to Manila, when the U.S. immigration authorities discovered that he misrepresented his petition. While his father started a new family in Manila, Camat managed to remain in the United States with his mother and sisters despite of their allegations over the deportation case.
