PENALOSA-VORAPIN TICKETS GO ON SALE!
PhilBoxing.com Tue, 11 Mar 2008
Tickets to the much-awaited title defense of WBO bantamweight champion Gerry Penalosa against Ratanachai Vorapin go on sale starting on Thursday at all Ticketnet outlets in all SM branches and at the Araneta Coliseum box office.
Penalosa will defend his title for the first time against the durable Vorapin, himself a former holder of the belt now owned by Penalosa, on April 6 at the historic Big Dome.
The event, presented by Golden Boy Promotions, ABS-CBN and ALA Gym, will showcase four championship battles topped by the Penalosa-Vorapin world title duel.
In the chief support, WBO Intercontinental superbantam champion Rey 'Boom Boom' Bautista defends his strap against the gutsy Mexican Genaro Camargo over 12 rounds.
Another scorcher takes place when the undefeated AJ 'Bazooka' Banal figures in a 12-round IBF superfly eliminator against unbeaten Uruguayan Caril Herrera in what appears to be a Fight of the Year candidate.
Another unbeaten fighter, WBO Oriental and Asia Pacific superbantamweight titlist Ciso 'Kid Terrible' Morales will defend his titles against South Korea's Yoo-Shin Kim.
First bout starts at 8AM on April 6, with the veteran Bert Batawang taking on Indonesia's Heri Amol. Also set to see action is RP bantam champ Michael Domingo, who will face Thailand's Thepnimit Sor Chitpattana.
Ticket prices: Patron P3,500; Lower Box P2,000; Upper Box A P1,000; Upper Box B P500; and General Admission P200.
