CEBU, Philippines — Filipino-Swedish sensation Alexis "The Swedish Slugger" Fredriksson and seasoned Filipino warrior Reymond Empic are SET TO CLASH in one of the undercards for the highly-anticipated "Binukbukay Sa Sugbú" on Saturday, February 8, at the NUSTAR Convention Center in Cebu City, Philippines.
Fredriksson, representing Cebu’s Omega Boxing Gym, tipped the scales at a lean 140 lbs, poised to unleash his fury and secure his second professional victory!
Meanwhile, the more-experienced Empic, weighing in a bit heavier at 144.2 lbs, is hungrier than ever to prove his mettle and take down the rising star!
Who will emerge victorious in this electrifying Super Lightweight showdown?
Fredrikksson and Empic shake hands during Friday's weighin in Cebu.
Will Fredriksson's youth, speed, and the coaching skills of “Dr. J,” Julius Erving Junco WIN THE NIGHT???
Or will Reymond Empic's battle-hardened experience, heart and strength prove too much to handle???
Don’t miss the boxing thrill of "Binukbukay Sa Sugbú" on SATURDAY, February 8. Witness the action unfold!
