 Gomez.
HERLAN "Niño Bonito" Gomez of Bacolod City pulled another smashing knockout when he stopped Komgrich Nantapech of Thailand in 2:48 of the 1st round to win the vacant WBC Asian Silver bantamweight title last September 28 at the Spaceplus Bangkok RCA in Bangkok, Thailand.
The 24-year-old Gomez knocked down Nantapech early in the round with a combination. When the fight resumed, Gomez again hit Nantapech with a right punch by which the Thai never recovered again.
