Ligas fires back at former GAB chief Guanzon By Jerome S. Galunan Jr. PhilBoxing.com Fri, 09 Dec 2016  Ligas. BACOLOD CITY -- The word war continues between Cebu-based ring officials and former Games and Amusement Board (GAB) chairman Juan Ramon Guanzon after international judge Edward Ligas of Cebu reacted on the former?s statements against them. Ligas in his email to this writer said that the former GAB chair is desperate to cover-up his mess in GAB. ?He tried to mislead and divert the issues at instant petition. Thus, he used the Bacolod officials to answer some of the allegations and called the Cebuano ring officials unethical when they articulated the issues through media,? he claimed. ?The former Chairman knew that we already raised these issues last February of 2015 in Davao City, together with the late Ronnie Nathanielsz, Edgar Olalo, Arnie Najera and Tony Pesons ? where the chairman got mad and raised his voice and walked out from our discussions. The late Nathanielsz even called the Chairman by saying ? c'mmon don?t walkout.? Ligas, in his e-mail, stressed that it was a blatant lie when the Chairman dragged the promoters that they want an increase in their fees. ?We never discussed about fees for the ring officials. What we discussed were mismatches and transparency in his leadership which he was angry.? The Cebu ring official also asked that the former Chairman to research the definition on unethical acts and who practices them. ?When the chairman allowed the Boxing Chief Dr. Naseer Cruz, to act as a cutman in Macao, it was not unethical? When the Chairman allowed mismatches it was not unethical? When the Chairman acted himself as supervisor together with the boxing chief for regional titles in sanctioning bodies it was not an ethical? When the Chairman thru GAB Office certified that Jennifer Ortiz is a professional; boxer but the truth she was not a boxer, it was not unethical?? Ligas claimed. Further, Ligas also slammed the former Chairman and boxing chief for committing omissions and infractions not only in unethical manner but also illegal and highly immoral acts. He added that the issues here are gross incompetence of the former Chairman and the boxing chief as well as corruption, conflict of interest and human trafficking. ?We understand our colleagues in Bacolod because they are minions and beneficiaries of wrongdoings of Chairman Guanzon. With regards to their competence just listen the commentaries on how the commentators in television in May 28 fights in Bacolod. Just ask Dan Nietes what is the rule in head butt and knockout? Why some officials in Bacolod love to score ten-ten? Are they part of the ten-ten boys?? said Ligas. Click here to view a list of other articles written by Jerome S. Galunan Jr..  |
