Meet Jayr Raquinel: The Filipino Sensation Taking the Super Flyweight Division by Storm


PhilBoxing.com





In the super flyweight division, one of the names that spark excitement is the tough and skilled Pinoy warrior Jayr Raquinel.

Hailing from beautiful Negros Occidental in The Philippines, this young and fearless fighter is making waves in the super flyweight division, and his impressive performances are a testament to his skills and heart.

With a professional record of 18-2 and 14 knockouts, Raquinel has proven himself to be a force to be reckoned with in the ring.


Raquinel drops opponent.

But what sets him apart from his peers is his willingness to take on tough opponents on their home turf — coming out on top!

Raquinel's impressive resume boasts wins in Mexico, the Kingdom of Thailand, Pakistan, South Africa, and three times winner in Japan.

This old school Highland Gym boxer managed by prolific promoter Brico Santig is a proven true warrior, a fighter of honor always ready to put it all on the line of fire, and give his all to the sport he loves.

Currently, Raquinel holds the WBC Continental Americas title and is ranked among the top contenders in the world, with rankings including IBF #5, WBO #13, and WBC #5.


Raquinel connects with a right at his Japanese opponent.

His aggressive fighting style and devastating knockout power have earned him a reputation as one of the most exciting young fighters in the sport.

True Inspiration

Raquinel's passion for boxing is inspired by legends like Roberto Duran and Manny Pacquiao, and he is following in their footsteps with a ferocity that is both thrilling and humbling.

Like his idols, Raquinel is a true warrior, always pushing himself to be better and never backing down from a challenge. Never!

What's Next for Jayr Raquinel?

With his sights set on a world title, Raquinel is hungry for more big fights and bigger challenges.

His win over Yahir Frank for the WBC Silver Superfly Title in Hermosillo, Mexico, has fans wanting to seeing him in thrilling action again. The soonest! In fact, very possible Jayr will see action defending his WBC Continental belt during the coming WBC Convention 2025 in Bangkok, Thailand. 🇹🇭

Will Raquinel — good father of two boys in Bacolod — continue his winning streak, and cement his place among the top in the hot 115 pound weight class?

It’s the division of “Bam” Rodriguez and “Puma” Martinez!

One thing is for sure - with his skill, determination, and passion, the future is bright for this Filipino sensation.

Get Ready for his Next Big Fight!

Oo, don't miss out on the action as Jayr Raquinel takes on the best of the best in the super flyweight division.

With his impressive record and fearless attitude, he's sure to make a statement and leave boxing fans excited and talking.
