City Mayor Nacional Mercado with City Vice Mayor and City Sports Council Chairman Maloney Samaco and SP Sports Committee Chairman Councilor Zaldy Olita bestowed the award on the young Pagara who gave pride and glory to the city as well as the country in fights here and abroad.

His knockout victory over Aekkawee Kaewmanee of Thailand during the Pinoy Pride 41 at the IEC Convention Center in Cebu City showed ha was on the right road to redemption after that heartbreaking first career loss to Cesar Juarez of Mexico.
