The 17-year-old prospect and younger brother of knockout artist Jason Pagara will put at stake his unblemished fight record of nine fights with seven stoppages against the 44 fights veteran Bantique.

An outstanding feat seldom achieved by Filipino ringster fighting in Japan. Meanwhile, six more professional bouts will usher in the Sinulog Box-off with Welbeth Loberanis tangling against Jonathan Ricablanca and undefeated Melvin Gumban going up against Joash Apericio in 10 and 8 round bouts respectively. Crowd pleaser Roma Rate will again display his non-stop fighting style when he collides with Rowel Garcia of Koronadal City and another ALA boy prospect Mark Vincent Bernaldez will try to extend his wining streak versus the more experiences Roy Roy Sumugat of Bacolod City.

The event is an annual and traditional presentation of ALA Promotions in association with COBRA ENERGY DRINK in homage to the Sto. Nino. The Sinulog Boxing festivity is open and free to the public.
