DAVAO CITY – Pedro Taduran Jr. tipped at 104 lbs. while Rene Mark Cuarto scaled at 105 lbs. during Friday’s final weigh-in for today’s International Boxing Federation World minimimweight championship fight at the Bula Gym at Gen. Santos City.
“OK naman po. Ready na po (It's OK. Ready),” said Taduran, who will be making his second title defense.
Taduran (14W-2L-1D, 11 KOs) doesn’t think of a knockout win but he will just go with the flow of the fight.
“Hindi ko po yan masasabi pero gagawin ko po lahat ng aking makakaya (I can't say that but I will do my best),” said Taduran.
“Okay naman po magandang laban po yan bukas (It's okay, it's a good fight tomorrow),” said Taduran.
Cuarto (18W-2L-2D, 11 KOs), on the other hand said that he is ready too.
“Ok lang ako (I'm Okay),” said Cuarto.
Cuarto said: “Dili ko ma ingun nga naay ma KO ugma pero sure ko nga nindot jud ang among dula duha (I can't say I have KO tomorrow but I'm sure our game will be great)”.
Both ate a “bulalo” to give them strength.
