SULTAN'S WINNING FORMULA: NO RESPECT TO HIS OPPONENTS

LOS ANGELES, Ca. -- How can you describe a boxer like Jonas Sultan?
For ALA Boxing Stable chief trainer Edito Villamor, two words will suffice to describe his ward -- no respect! But, don't misunderstand.
Because Sultan only shows no respect to his opponent, especially if he is a world champion.
"Walang respeto si Sultan sa mga world champions, 'yun ang attitude niya," Villamor stated.
Two former world champions, Sonny Boy Jaro and Johnriel Casimero, fell to Sultan's fury, defeating one after the other (via 8th round knockout vs Jaro, and unanimous decision against Casimero).
"Nung laban kay Casimero, walang naniwala. Kami rin e. 'Yung game plan namin paatrasin si Casimero kasi he's more as a pressure fighter. Kaya first round pa lang 'yun na turning point na manalo si Jonas, ni-wrestling niya si Casimero," Villamor recalled.
Come May 26, Sultan will battle, yet, another champion, but this time, his opponent is the current world champion Jerwin Ancajas, who will defend the IBF superflyweight belt for the fifth time.
Can Sultan do the same thing with Ancajas?
Villamor thinks so.
"More of street fighting kaya 'yung style niya hindi mo malaman at nakita ni Jerwin 'yan at alam ni Jerwin 'yan (style ni Sultan)," said Villamor.
Villamor added that although Ancajas is a good boxer, he noticed some flaws to his style.
"Magaling naman si Ancajas, kaya lang hindi naman siya pressure fighter. Isa lang ang suntok, dalawa, isa. Kaya sana ma-deliver 'yung game plan namin ni Jonas kagaya ng ginawa niya kila Casimero at Jaro," said Villamor.
Villamor got helped in preparing Sultan from a well-known sports performance specialist Nick Curson, who provided the scientific conditioning of the challenger.
"Kay Nick yung scientific conditioning, kami (trainers) naman bahala sa game plan," ani Villamor. "Perfect naman sabi ni Nick, solid 100% ready na talaga si Jonas."
"Yung game plan na lang kailangang ma-execute. Ginawa na lahat walang excuses." (VTRomano)
