MANILA - Ballroom boxing returns on October 28 when Elorde International Promotions presents a 72-round card highlighted by the Philippine super-bantamweight championship fight at the D?Flash Ballroom of the Elorde Sports Complex in Paranaque City.
Reigning Philippine 122-pound kingpin Jhunriel Ramonal put his super-bantamweight crown on the bloc against challenger Sylvester Lopez in a 12-round encounter top-billing the card dubbed as ?Bakbakan Sa Elorde.?
Both the defending champion and his challenger were at the SCOOP Sa Kamayan session last Friday where they pronounced themselves ready for their showdown, a fight between two boxers from the opposite sides of the Zamboanga Pensinsula. Ramonal, 23, hails from Sindangan del Norte in Zamboanga del Norte, while Lopez, who lost to Yota Sato in his bid for the WBC superflyweight title, is from Sibugay in Zamboanga del Sur.
Another 12-round preliminary main event will feature Renan Trongco of Rizal town in Palawan, who will defend his World Boxing Council Youth Intercontinental light-flyweight diadem against no. 2 contender Lionel Legada of Binangonan, Rizal.
Trongco and Legada also appeared as guests at the SCOOP session, sponsored by Powerad, AKTV and FILA, along with trainers Archer Villamor amd Romualdo Mahinay Jr.
An eight-rounder between flyweights Renie Daniel of Manabo, Abra and Roy Albaera of Davao City heads the 38-round curtain raisers that also include five six rounders. A pair of six-round special attractions rounds out the card.
