Roli Gasca of Barili, Cebu came up short in his bid to reclaim his Oriental and Pacific Boxing Federation (OPBF) super bantamweight title when he lost by split decision to champion Yukinori Oguni of Japan in a fight held at the Sambo Hall in Kobe, Hyogo, Japan.
Gasca lost the OPBF title to Oguni last year by unanimous decision in a fight also held in Japan. Oguni has already defended the belt twice against countrymen Hiromasha Ohashi and Masaaki Serei.
This is the fourth career loss for Gasca who drops to 19W-4L, 5 KO's while Oguni registers his tenth win, two by knockout without a loss.
Another Filipino boxer in the undercard, Roberto Gonzales, lost by third round TKO to Hirohito Fukuhara.
