DAVAO CITY ? Undefeated WBC Asia Youth flyweight champion Dave "Dobermann" Apolinario and former WBA Interim Light Flyweight champion Randy Petalcorin will both see action in the Sanman-ESPN5 event on June 9 at the TV5 Studio in Caloocan and will be aired live via ESPN5.
The 20-year old Apolinario is seeking his 11th victory with six knockout as he faces fellow Pinoy warrior Adrian Lerasan (7W-3L-0D, 1KO).
?My opponent is no pushover. He is a legit fighter and will not take him lightly,? said Apolinario, who is making his third appearance on ESPN5. ?I need a big win for me to get to the bigger fights?, added Apolinario.
Petalcorin (29W-3L-1D, 22KO), on the other hand, will be back in action from months of hiatus as he faces Thai warrior Worawatchai Boonja (14W-21L-1D, 13KO).
The 27-year old Petalcorin wants to redeem himself this time. He was so heartbroken and he took a needed break in order to re-assess himself and the direction of his boxing career.
?But now I?m ready to pick-up the pieces and do better. I learned my lessons the hard way and now it?s time for redemption,? said Petalcoin. Petalcorin said that he is still in his prime and can still be a world champion.
?Now I got a tough Thai opponent to beat and I will do my best to impress my fans. It adds motivation that the fight will be on live national TV again?, Petalcorin said.
Sanman CEO Jim Claude Managquil expressed his confidence on Petalcorin.
?It?s a make or break for him (Petalcorin),? he said. (Lito delos Reyes)
