Jeminez (8-1-1, 5KOs) won gold medals in the Palarong Pambansa in 2011 and 2012 and at the Philippine National Games in 2013 and 2014. He also topped the Batang Pinoy and the ABAP competitions under the Cebu City team. He is managed by veteran man of boxing Lorenzo Sy. He drew his last fight against Elias Joaquino last April in Medellin, Cebu but stopped his last three opponents prior to that fight.

Also seeing action on the undercard are:

- Virgel Vitor (13-2-0, 7KOs) of Harada Boxing Stable vs Jeffrey Stella (4-7-3, 4KOs) of Mandaue City for 8 rounds bantamweight.
