Genesis Servania (28-0,11KO?s) and Ralph Lulu (12-1-2,5KO?s) will fight for the vacant WBO Asia Pacific featherweight title tonight April 29 at the Sangyo Hall, in Ishikawa, Kanagawa, Japan.
Servania was a headliner of the very popular ?Pinoy Pride? series of ALA Promotions before he transferred to Japan. He is a former WBO Asia Pacific and Intercontinental super bantamweight titlist. The 25 year old Servania already fought twice in The Land of the Rising Sun, keeping his undefeated record, both by unanimous decision against Hendrik Barongsay of Indonesia and Alexander Espinoza of Venezuela.
The 26 year old Lulu was also a familiar face on the preliminary bouts of ALA fight cards. His only loss was in his last fight, by unanimous decision against Danny Tampipi last November in Benguet.
This overseas all-Pinoy WBO regional clash comes at the heels of the WBO Oriental bantamweight fight last March in Hong Kong where Mark Anthony Geraldo beat Kenny Demecillo by unanimous decision.
