BOGO BUHAY BOKSINGERO RINGSIDE REPORT By Rene Bonsubre, Jr. PhilBoxing.com Mon, 23 May 2011 Bogo City, Cebu ? Rodel Wenceslao of the Phil-Aust Gym of Mandaue City outpointed Joel Soterol of the RWS Stable of Cebu in a well fought four round junior lightweight match that served as the final bout in last Sunday?s ?Buhay Boksingero? fight card held at the Don Celestino Martinez Sports and Cultural Complex. An accidental head butt inflicted a cut on Wenceslao?s left eyelid which cost Soterol a point. The momentum shifted back and forth the rest of the way. The scorecards read 39-36, 38-37 and 38-37 for Wenceslao. In another junior lightweight battle, Honey Boy Vidad of Siquijor won by TKO in the third round over Anecito Dondon Gesta of the Gesta gym. Vidad was the aggressor but Gesta adjusted well in the second. But a right hand lead suddenly dropped the southpaw Gesta. Gesta got up and fought back despite being wobbly. In the third, another solid right sent Gesta down and the referee waived off the fight at the 2:05 mark. Jessie Cris Rosales of the SGG Gym and Bobbie Sentillas of T.I. Cebu fought to a four round split draw. It was a tactical battle of feints and counters between two promising junior featherweights. The scores ? 39-37 Rosales, 39-37 Sentillas and 38-38.
