TAGBILARAN CITY,BOHOL- Jimmy ?Popeye? Paypa of Lanao del Sur will be pitted against Gadwin Tubigon of Dipolog City this Saturday in a ten round non-title contest at the Island City Mall.

Paypa (15W-2L-1D,5KO?s), who has not lost since 2010, is coming off a technical draw in Japan against Tsuyoshi Tameda. Tubigon (10-9-2,5KO?s) will try to bounce back from his TKO loss due to a split upper lip last May in Cebu City against Harmonito dela Torre in a WBF International title bout.
