Undefeated ALA Boy Milan Milendo has won the vacant WBO Asia Pacific minimumweight title a few hours ago with a fourth round technical knockout victory over Thailand's Nuapayak Sakkririn.
The end came at the 2:58 mark of the round.
The victory improved Milendo's record to 13-0, 4 KO's.
The title was recently vacated by another ALA Boy, Donnie Nietes, who took the world crown recently with a unanimous decision over Thailand's Pornsawan Kratingdaenggym.
Meanwhile, Eden Sonsona lost via split decision against Kohei Kono of Japan at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, also hours ago, according to a report posted at boxrec.com. Sonsona dropped to 12-2-0 (2KOs) while Kono improved his record to 23-3-0 (7KOs).
