"GOLPE-GOLPE" IN ZAMBOANGA SLATED FOR DEC. 1


PhilBoxing.com




It will be the Philippines versus Thailand when big-time boxing makes a return to Zamboanga City on December 1 in a blockbuster card dubbed "Golpe-Golpe Na Zamboanga" at the city's coliseum.

"This will signal the return of big-time boxing to Zamboanga City. It's been a long wait. But we are here to stay," said Congressman Erbie Fabian, who inked an agreement with top Filipino promoter Sammy Gello-ani recently during the WBC Convention for the fights to take place.

Headlining the card is WBO Asia-Pacific flyweight champ Draian Francisco who will go up against Thailand's Siwa Raja Gym in the ten-round main event.

"This is our initial offering to the fans in Mindanao. We plan to do regular shows in Zamboanga and this is just the beginning," enthused Gello-ani.

Local boy Eric Canoy, now fighting out of the Fabian Stable, will take on Sairung Raja Gym in a ten-round featherweight tussle.

The other ten-rounder pits John Clifford Ranan of Bohol against Cagayan De Oro's Phil Angcamor of the Kaamino Stable.

The rest of the bouts pit Jhon Mark Ranan versus Roland Teofilo; Leczy Tanamor against Ivan Gahisan; Junjun Cantao versus Bernard Maglangit; Jun Rey Gaspar vs Jeffrey Candado; and Rolando Magallano versus Pedring Young, Jr.

Meanwhile, fast-rising Mindanao prospect Ciso Morales also recently inked a deal with SGG Promotions to promote his future fights abroad.

Morales, accompanied by manager Kenneth Rontal and WBO Asia-Pacific Chairman Leon Panoncillo, signed the agreement with Gello-ani recently in Manila.

The tall and power-punching young prospect is slated to see action next on December 22 in Oroquieta City against a soon-to-be-announced opponent.

"We have high hopes for this young kid from Talibon, Bohol. He has the discipline and the looks to go big time," said Rontal.
