By Ronnie Nathanielsz PhilBoxing.com Mon, 29 Feb 2016
Unbeaten American southpaw Jessie Magdaleno will see action in the undercard of the WBO super bantamweight title defense of Nonito ?The Filipino Flash? Donaire against No. 4 ranked Zsolt Bedak of Hungary at the Cebu City Sports Center on April 23.
There?s been no mention of a possible opponent but Top Rank Promotions is reportedly looking ahead to a Donaire-Magdaleno title fight in the near future provided Donaire beats Bedak.
The 24 year old Magdaleno who is ranked No. 1 by the WBO in the super bantamweight division is also rated No. 3 by the WBA and No. 5 by the IBF.
He won his last two fights by knockouts over Filipino opponents.
The first was a 1st round KO of Vergel Nebran on October17, 2015 in a featherweight bout while the second was a 7th round knockout in a scheduled ten round bout over Rey Perez in a super featherweight showdown on February 20 this year.
Magdaleno also won a near shutout eight round decision over former world champion Raul Hirales on May 1 last year with scores of 120-107 turned in by Ian Scott and Alejandro Lopez Cid and 119-108 by Filipino judge Gil Co.
