BAGO CITY, Negros Occidental (Feb. 4) ? Cebu City added two more wins while Cadiz and Victorias City also both scored two victories today in the final day of the Visayas Preliminaries in the PSC-Pacquiao Amateur Boxing Cup at the Manuel Y. Torres Memorial Sports Center here.
John Paul Gabunelas won by a split decision over Bayawan City?s Rudni Camani in the Youth Boys Light Flyweight (46-49 kg.) division. His teammate Limbert Cainap also won for the Cebuanos via a convincing unanimous decision against Elmar Douma of Don Salvador Benedicto in the Youth Boys Flyweight (52 kg.) category.
