DIGOS City ? Knockout artist Jonathan Ba-at retained

vacant junior bantamweight title Friday night at the

eyebrow due to an accidental head butt in the seventh
round forcing GAB physician Dr. Clemente Carlos III to
stop the 10-round title-fight.

Mata declared Ba-at as the winner via a technical
decision for leading on the judges? scores. All three
judges scored 69-64 in favor of Ba-at, who got his
first cut on his right eye also by a head butt in the
fifth round.

City dominated the 10-round fight to score a unanimous
decision win against Leo Escobido of the Bernard Yu
Stable of Butuan.

championships, awarded the gold belts to the winners.
In the undercard, Bonn Corales of VJA Stable stopped
Juaren Lebres of Bislig in 2:15 of the first round;
Ardin Diale of Digos City beat Wilfredo Dulay of
Bislig by unanimous decision; and Rocky Gabaes of
