? Garcia overweight
? Magbanua to fight Las Pinas
? Villanueva has new opponent

DAVAO CITY ? Former International Boxing Organization (IBO) world super flyweight champion Edrin ?The Sting? Dapudong and his opponent former Pan Asia Boxing Association (PABA) flyweight king Richard Garcia submitted contrasting weights today (June 25) for their much-awaited 10-rounder bout tomorrow night at the Almendras gym.

Dapudong tipped the scales at 118 pounds while Garcia was 121 lbs.

?Garcia will now use a pair of heavier gloves of 10 ounce instead of the regular 8 ounce against Dapudong?, said Games and Amusements Board Davao sports and games officer John Kenneth Improso.

The 28-year old Dapudong has a record of 30 wins with 18 knockouts against six loses while Garcia, 31, has 25 wins (7 KOs), 21 defeats and one draw.

Meanwhile, former WBO Oriental featherweight Lorenzo ?Thunderbolt? Villanueva will now face late substitute Hagibis Quinones of General Santos City in the main supporting event.
Villanueva?s original opponent ex-Philippine Boxing Federation flyweight champion Rey Las Pinas will now instead face ex-WBO Oriental bantamweight title-holder Rolando ?Smooth Magbanua.
Magbanua (25 wins, 17 Kos, 2 loses) was supposedly scheduled to fight former Philippine Boxing Federation champion Jimmy ?Xcon Tirador? Aducal, who suffered an injury during his training in Manila.

?Nagpalit sila ng kalaban dahil mas mabigat itong si Quinones at si Las Pinas ay 115 lamang,? explained Improso.

Villanueva and Magbanua, however, doesn?t mind of the sudden changes of their opponents.

?Kahit sino sa kanila lalabanan namin ni Rolando,? said the 29-year old Villanueva (28 wins, 24 KOs, 1 loss).

All of the fighters from Sonshine Sports Management Inc. under international evangelist Pastor Apollo Quiboloy and former Cotabato Gov. Manny Pinol had earlier vowed to win by knockouts including ex-WBO Oriental mini-flyweight king Romel ?Little Assasin? Asenjo and undefeated Roskie ?Kapre? Cristobal.
Asenjo (26 wins, 20 KOs, 4 loses) fights Michael ?Matibay? Rodriguez of Baguio in another tenner while Cristobal (10 wins, 8 Kos) takes on veteran JR Mendoza of Cavite in an 8-rounder 135 lbs. match.
