DIGOS City -- Except from the main event, all the
bouts in the "Ring War in Davao del Sur" ended up via

Lazarito Stable from Valencia, Bukidnon in 2:25 of the
second round.

The 19-year old Bangoyan unanswered landed telling
blows forcing the referee to stop the 118-pound bout
scheduled for four rounds.

Three wards from manager Tony Dacer of Davao City also
won by knockouts.

Jessie Albarracin twice knocked down Rodel Veronque of
Joel Kaamino Stable-Cagayan de Oro City in the first
round. Roy Taguibalos kayoed Reymon Legaspi also of
CDO in 2:00 of the first round, while Jimboy Ambray

Ariel Salvano in 1:05 of the fourth round.

In the main event, former outstanding amateur boxers
Jetly Purisima of Rey Golingan Stable-Gen. Santos City
and Dacer's Vinel Desabille settled to a majority draw
after a hotly constested 4-round fight.

Judges Abdul Marajan and Ramil Ovalo both saw it
38-all, while GAB OIC Jimmy Mata had it 39-48 in favor
of Purisima.

"Parehong magagaling sila. They will meet again soon
in a rematch. But not this time," Golingan said.

impressed on the fights, which will be shown later on
Sky Cable TV. Also present were Gov. Joseph Bautista,
