GENERAL Santos City -- Reigning World Boxing Council (WBC) Asian Boxing Council Continental featherweight champion John Vincent ?Mulawin? Moralde of Davao City scored a 2nd round knockout against Fil-American William ?Black Slugger? George of Kidapawan City last July 11 at the Robinsons Mall in General Santos City.
Moralde of Sanman Boxing Stable-Gensan landed a powerful right to the body of George, who finally was not able to stand up again.
George was earlier also knocked down by a bodyshot in the first round but was save by the bell.
?I?m now ready for a bigger fight,? said the Moralde, who remained undefeated with 13 wins and 7 knockouts.
The 21-year old Moralde had previously beaten Brayd Smith last March 14 in Queensland, Australia for the WBC ABCC title. Smith, who only suffered his first loss, was in coma after the fight and later died in the hospital on March 16.
Moralde?s boxing manager Jim Claude Manangquil, on the other hand, was convinced that Moralde has recovered already from that sad experience.
?It was a good fight to bring back his confidence again,? said the 21-year old Manangquil.
George suffered his 23rd loss against 10 wins.
The 8-rounder bout was the undercard in the ?Ang Laban ng Heneral? boxing promotion of Ran-Ran Bernardo and Brian Golingan. ? LITO DELOS REYES
