Sinulog Card Slated on January 20!
By Salven L. Lagumbay PhilBoxing.com Wed, 09 Jan 2008
Just as it does every year, the ALA Boxing Gym will once again bring this year 2008 a Sinulog boxing extravaganza on January 20 at the Gaisano Countrymall carpark.
The event is a way of being part of the yearly mardi gras, where millions of Filipinos flock to Cebu City for the Sinulog, a celebration for the blessed Sto. Nino.
Headlining this year's card is young ALA upstart Joseph Omanz (9-0, 5 KO's) who will go up against tough-as-nails 30-fight veteran Pedro 'Cobrita' Malco.
Omanz is coming off a sensational second-round TKO over Albert Cesa at the Araneta Coliseum last December 2 in a card headlined by the Rey Bautista-Antonio Meza scorcher.
The rest of the Sinulog card pits: Edmund Velayo vs Mark John Yap; Idol Rolito Nengasca vs Ranie Pamatian; Idol runner-up Pedro Salondro against Lemuel Tanugan; Mark Jesson Taroja versus Jun Tasic; and Joel Zaspa versus Fidel Macarayan.
