Sanman Promotions presents 'Brawl at the Mall: Glory' PhilBoxing.com Mon, 11 Jan 2016  Fast rising boxing promotion SANMAN Promotions of General Santos City, Philippines Recently held a press conference announcing its inaugural boxing show for 2016 with the 2nd installment of ?Brawl at the Mall: Glory? on February 13 at the Gaisano Mall Atrium, General Santos City. The main event is a championship fight for the vacant World Boxing Federation (WBF) International featherweight title between John Vincent ?Mulawin? Moralde of Sanman Boxing Club and Anthony ?Zorro? Sabalde of the Flores and Wakee Salud Boxing Stable from Cebu. ?This will be the first of our scheduled seven or eight boxing shows for this year,? said Sanman Promotions Chief Executive Officer Jim Claude ?JC? Manangquil. Sanman also hopes to bring one show in Manila soon. Moralde (14-0-0-7 KOs) and Sabalde (10-4-0-5 KOs) will be fighting for 10 rounds. ?We are testing John Vincent Moralde to face a quality opponent like Sabalde,? said Manangquil. He said that ?Sabalde is well-trained and is a talented southpaw and should not be taken lightly by Moralde?. ?If Moralde wins, we are planning to set him up in the US together with Harmonito dela Torre, who is currently training now under a Cuban coach,? Manangquil said. Moralde, on the other hand, said: ?I will work hard for this fight against Sabalde.? ?I usually don?t take my opponent lightly. But I know I will be victorious in this fight. I have confidence with my ability that I soon be a world champion,? added Moralde. The 21-year old Moralde, a native of Davao City, captured the vacant WBC Asian Boxing Council Continental featherweight title via a unanimous decision against previous undefeated Australian Brayd Smith on March 14, 2015 in Queensland, Australia. Smith collapsed soon after the bout due to bleeding on the brain, and passed away two days after the bout. Four months later, Moralde came back to the ring to knockout Fil-American William George in the second round on July 11 at the Robinson?s Mall Atrium in Gensan. Moralde continued his winning form by a unanimous decision against Jerry Castroverde of Cebu at the Gaisano Mall Atrium also in Gensan on September 26 last year. Moralde recently arrived from Japan together with stablemate Romero ?Dynamite? Duno where they were both hired for three weeks as sparring partners of former WBC bantamweight world champion Hozumi Hasegawa. Sabalde, on the other hand, previously stopped Phil Angcamor in the 4th round last February 28 at the Valencia City gym in Bukidnon. He also won by a UD against Bonnie Makiling last November 24, 2014 in Kitaotao, Bukidnon. Sabalde fought but lost to Jessie Cris Rosales by a UD in their title-fight for the vacant WBO Asia Pacific Youth featherweight crown held May 3, 2014 at the Waterfront Hotel and Casino in Cebu. Meanwhile, Romeo "Dyamite" Duno and bantamweight "Magic" Mike Plania also from Sanman Boxing Club are seeing action in the undercard. Duno (8-0-0-7KOs) will face Jason ?Siaton Boy? Egara (21-16-0-10 KOs) of Siaton, Negros Oriental for the vacant Philippine Boxing Federation super featherweight title. The 18-year old Plania (8-0-0-4 KOs), a former member of the PH national team in the Junior World Championship held in Ukraine will fight Bryan Samson of Wakee Salud Gym(Cebu) - PR Photo (L-R): John Vincent Moralde, promoter JC Manangquil and Romeo Duno during the presscon announcing the Feb. 13 event.  |
