Lorenzo Villanueva of the Philippines will be facing Mexican banger Diego ?Tyson? Ledesma in the supporting main event and will continue the budding boxing rivalry of Philippines vs Mexico.

Villanueva will be taking to the ring his amazing record of 20 wins with 20 by way of knock out without a defeat while the Mexican Ledesma who is nicknamed ?Tyson? is confident his skills and power base on his high knock-out percentage is going to be enough to merit a KO win over the Filipino.

The Mexican duo will then be joining the rest of Team World at the SM City Cebu Entertainment Center 5 PM the same day where they will be doing the Pinoy Pride Opponents Public Work-out. Boxing fans are encouraged to witness these Pinoy Pride public presentations, as ALA Promotions will be giving out freebies during trivia games on these shows.

Macahilig against Thai veteran Kaichon Sor Vorapin, OPBF Champion Merlito ?Tiger? Sabillo vs Indonesia?s Sofyan Effendi and Joseph Von Minoza going up against Yoo Shin Kim of Korea.
