BANGKOK, Thailand — Exciting Filipino Boxers AJ Paciones, Reymond Yanong, Elmar “Samurai” Zamora, and Reymart Soledad are strong and ready for fighting action in today’s thrilling Highland Boxing Show in Bangkok, Thailand.

The 12-bout show can be watched LIVE for free from the YouTube channel of Highland Boxing. The first fight starts around 2 pm (Philippines Time)

👉 In the main event, unbeaten world-ranked Cebuano AJ Paciones (9-0, 5 KOs), son of former fighter Do Dong, battles Xiang Li (9-2, 4 KOs) of China for the WBA ASIA 108 Belt.

The 12-rounder is crucial for the tall WBA #2 Paciones, who is inches closer to a world title shot in the light flyweight division (the # 1 ranking is vacant). Supervisor for the fight is Won Kim of South Korea.

👉 Also, Pinoy battle-tested warrior Reymond Yanong (15-10-1) of Escalante, Negros Occidental, sporting a white cap during the weigh-in, will clash in a ten-round battle against Camper Phayom of Thailand for the ABF Lightweight Title.


Zamora and Saiwaew at the scales.

👉 What's more, Elmar “Samurai” Zamora (8-0, 6 KOs), wearing orange trunks, fights the taller, more experienced Wisitsak Saiwaew of Thailand. Their non-title 6-chapter saga is in the flyweight division. Could the skilled, 26-year-old “Samurai” Zamora score his knockout # 7?


Soledad and Nahathuch at yesterday's weighin.

👉 In addition, 24-year-old Reymart Soledad (3-0, 1 KO) of Angono, Rizal, takes on Nahathuch Paharn in a non-title six rounder war in the super lightweight division.



👉 In show’s co-main event, Hin Ting Chan (7-1, 3 KOs), of Hong Kong battles Thailand’s Panumad Bubpamalo for the WBF (World Boxing Foundation) Flyweight World Title. Supervisor for the ten-round world title fight is Alvin S. Go of the Philippines.



👉 The exciting show includes undefeated 21-year-old American featherweight Jermaine Hardison (4-0, 3KOs) trading harsh blows during a scheduled eight-chapter war against Thuwanan Tumninlakan (4-2-1) for the WBC ASIA Youth Featherweight Belt.

👉 Raymond Poon (10-3) of Yuen Long, Hong Kong, fights Komgrich Nantapech for the WBC ASIA Continental 108 Strap.
