Unbeaten American southpaw Jessie Magdaleno will see action in the undercard of the WBO super bantamweight title defense of Nonito ?The Filipino Flash? Donaire against No. 4 ranked Zsolt Bedak of Hungary at the Cebu City Sports Center on April 23.
There?s been no mention of a possible opponent but Top Rank Promotions is reportedly looking ahead to a Donaire-Magdaleno title fight in the near future provided Donaire beats Bedak.
The 24 year old Magdaleno who is ranked No. 1 by the WBO in the super bantamweight division is also rated No. 3 by the WBA and No. 5 by the IBF.
He won his last two fights by knockouts over Filipino opponents.
The first was a 1st round KO of Vergel Nebran on October17, 2015 in a featherweight bout while the second was a 7th round knockout in a scheduled ten round bout over Rey Perez in a super featherweight showdown on February 20 this year.
Magdaleno also won a near shutout eight round decision over former world champion Raul Hirales on May 1 last year with scores of 120-107 turned in by Ian Scott and Alejandro Lopez Cid and 119-108 by Filipino judge Gil Co.
