WBC Asian Boxing Council light flyweight champion Richard Claveras is determined to continue his comeback following his stunning 1st round knockout at the hands of WBC world champion Pedro Guevara of Mexico last April 11 who in turn lost the title to unheralded Japanese Yu Kimura by a split decision in Sendai, Japan on Sunday, Manila Time.
The 26 year old Claveras who has an impressive record of 12 knockouts in 13 wins with 2 draws suffered his only loss to Guevara when he began aggressively with rights to the head of Guevara before the Mexican connected with an overhand right and a left hook to the body sending to the canvas for the full count.
In his first comeback fight after the loss to Guevara, Claveras scored a unanimous twelve round decision over WBC ABC 9th ranked Benezer Alolod last July 11 and is determined to continue his comeback against rugged Jerry Tomogdon in the supporting main event of an exciting United Boxing International Promotions card at the Highway Hills Integrated School Gymnasiun in Mandaluyong City on Wednesday, December 2.
Claveras won the vacant WBC ASian Boxing Council 108 pound title with a stunning 1st round knockout of Thailand?s Namphol Sithsaithiong on June 7, 2014 in Makati City.
The 22 year old Jerry Tomogdon has a record of 18-6-3 with 9 knockouts and like Claveras can punch.
In a ?stay busy? fight last September 13, Tomogdon won a six round unanimous decision over Jherom Tuyor after he had lost by a 9th round knockout against WBC world champion Wanheng Menayothin, the talented Thai world champion.
Tomogdon was a last minute substitute and the undefeated Menayothin dominated the fight from the opening bell before a left hook to the body dropped Tomogdon to end the one-sided title fight.
