MELLIGEN IN PERFECT WEIGHT!
By Salven L. Lagumbay PhilBoxing.com Fri, 14 Aug 2009

ALA Gym's Mark Jason Melligen is shown today in a war pose right after working out where he hit 145 lbs, the weight set for tomorrow's weigh-in.
Melligen will battle Ernesto Zepeda in a 10-round welterweight war at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in one of the televised portion of the "Pinoy Power 2" card presented by Top Rank.
Meanwhile, Melligen's Las Vegas-based co-trainer Tony Martin arrived today from a vacation in scenic Cebu, Philippines in time for the weigh-in and the fight.
Melligen's Filipino trainer Edito Villamor and the father/son tandem of Tony and Edward Martin will be in Melligen's corner against Zepeda.
