MANILA -- Expect dagger looks and harsh words when the main protagonists of this Sunday's major "Payback" boxing event meet for the first time today in a 10AM press conference at the PICC.
Rey 'Boom Boom' Bautista and Antonio Meza of Mexico will face the media and answer queries regarding their big battle this Sunday at the historic Araneta Coliseum.
Also attending the media event are AJ 'Bazooka' Banal and Jovanny Soto who will tangle in the chief undercard for the WBO Asia Pacific Youth superflyweight title.
The other fighters seeing action in the card are also slated to grace today's final press conference.
Lady boxing announcer Amy Hayes of Kentucky is set to serve as master of ceremonies for today's event.
A training day is reserved for the fighters on Friday at Market-Market starting at 1:30PM to 5PM, to be graced also by Ms. Hayes.
The fighters will meet once again for the official weigh-in at 10AM on Saturday at the Gateway Mall.
