By Lito delos Reyes PhilBoxing.com Sun, 01 Mar 2015

REIGNING World Boxing Federation Asia-Pacific flyweight champion Jether Oliva of the Philippines will fight the undefeated Mexican Luis Nery on Feb. 28 in Tijuan, Baia California in Mexico.
Oliva is accompanied by his young manager Jim Claude Manangquil of General Santos City.
Both fighters tipped the scales at 117 lbs.
?Gagawin ko ang lahat upang manalo,?said Oliva, who has fight record of 22 wins, 10 by knockouts, and two loses and two draws.
The 27-year old Oliva previously beat Indonesian Jemmy Gobel by a unanimous decision to cop the WBF Asia-Pacific flyweight crown last October 5 in Glan, Sarangani Province.
Neri on the other hand, has 15 straight wins with 10 Kos. He previously stopped fellow Mexican Carlos Fontes by an 8th round TKO last Dec. 6.
?Jether will do his best to win. Hopefully Jether could use his veteran skills against the Mexican,?Manangquil said.
The fight is promoted by Zanfer Promotions.
Oliva was supposed to fight against Amiro Ricablanca in the undercard of the ?Yanig sa T?boli? on March 8 at the T?boli Municipal Gym in T?boli, South Cotabato. ? LITO DELOS REYES
