UNDEFEATED Charly “King’s Warrior” Suarez of San Isidro, Davao del Norte, stopped Tomjune “War Dog” Mangubat of Bukidnon in the 12th round to win the vacant World Boxing Association Asia super featherweight title last March 12 at The Flash Grand Ballroom of the Elorde Sports Complex in Paranaque City.
Suarez hit Mangubat with an uppercut to put him down in the 12th round, and the referee stopped the fight.
“You (Mangubat) brought your A-game and it made me be as sleek and focused as a tiger on the prowl and ready to pounce. I am grateful for the challenge you brought my way,” said Suarez in a Facebook message.
“I am honored to have shared the ring with a noble fighter in Tomjune Mangubat,” said Suarez.
The 33-year-old Suarez now has 10 wins with seven knockouts while Mangubat, 24, suffered his third defeat against 15 wins and one draw.
Meanwhile, Carl Jammes “Wonder Boy” Martin recovered from a knockdown to score a technical knockout against Ronnie Baldonado in the 11th round to retain his Philippine super bantamweight title in the main supporting event.
Martin also won the vacant WBA Asia super bantamweight title.
The 22-year-old Martin was downed in the 2nd round by Baldonado. But Martin recovered and sent down Baldonado in the 11th round. Baldonado, 26, was never able to recover.
In the supporting match, Bievenido Ligas knocked down Roland Jay Biendima in the 5th round to win by a unanimous decision to retain his Philippine flyweight title.
