WBO Oriental super flyweight champion Warlito Parrenas defends his title against tough Indonesian challenger Hengky Baransano in the main event of a loaded fight card promoted by Edgar De Castro and Ryuta Kato of United Boxing Promotions at the San Dionisio Multi Purpose Gym along Quirino Avenue, Paranaque.

Parrenas won the vacant title when Junior Bajawa of Indonesia who had a soplid record of 14-2 with 7 knockouts retired in the 6th round last June 7, 2014.

In his first title defense in an action-packed card in Taal, Batangas last October 4, the lanky Parrenas who also uses the name Wars Katsumata since he?s been fighting out of Japan, scored a comfortable unanimous ntwelve round decision over game Indonesian challenger Espinos Sabu whose father in a Filipino.

The 31 year old Parrenas used a stinging left jab and solid one-two combinations which are his forte, to overcome Sabu whose solid defense was key to his survival.

Once again Parrenas is expected to use his ring savvy to overcome another Indonesian challenger Baransano who is coming off a 4th round knockout over Dedy Junior.

Philippine flyweight champion Ardin Diale facesd Indonesian veteran Ricky Manufoe in a ten round, non tile bout that is sure to spice up the proceedings.
