Promoter and manager Aljoe Jaro said he is eyeing at least three top Filipino fighters led by North American Boxing Federation (NABF) super bantamweight champion Bernabe Concepcion in his ?biggest? promotion this year on December 26 either at the Araneta Coliseum in Quezon City or at the Ynarez Coliseum in Antipolo City.
Jaro said that in his initial talks with his sponsors, they decided to showcase the card ?live? in a TV network to be announced soon. He is eyeing Concepcion in the main event against either a tough Korean or Indonesia boxer.
Two more big names in RP boxing ? recent world challenger Sonny Boy Jaro and RP miniflyweight king Denver Cuello or Gabriel Pumar ? will be added in the card, the promoter said.
Aljoe Jaro said he is still scouting for the opponents of the three ?and I want them to be really tested by tough opponents, not just selected ones.?
?The schedule of my promotion as agreed with my sponsors is on December 26 and only the venue is being finalized. Either Aranets Coliseum in Cubao or Ynarez Coliseum in Antipolo City,? Aljoe Jaro said.
Concepcion arrived in the country early this month a week after stopping Giovanni Caro in the 8th round in a non-title tiff in California.
?Concepcion is now reporting in my gym and has started jogging every morning,? Aljoe Jaro said.
Jaro co-manages Concepion along with Michael Koncz and Manny Pacquiao.
