World ranked Filipino Bantamweight Kenneth Llover and former Flyweight Champ Luis “Nica” Concepcion of Panama faced off, behaving very friendly and respectful ahead of their exciting incoming rumble!
Llover, 22, and Concepcion 39, will collide in a 10-round non-title main event battle on Sunday. August 17, at the Winford Resort and Casino in Santa Cruz, Metro Manila.
The rising-star Llover, who is 14-0 with 9 KOs, is taking on the veteran former world champion Luis “Nica” Concepcion, who is 40-11 with 29 KOs.
Billed as "Mano A Mano" the match-up, which features a young gun versus a former king, is expected to be an exciting clash, and fans can’t wait to hearing the first bell!
Gerry Peñalosa, head of Gerrypens Promotions, thinks that this fight will show how ready Llover is for a world title fight.
Good luck to both, May The Best Man Win!!
