PhilBoxing.com Mon, 17 Nov 2008
ALA promotions big man Michael Aldeguer has arrived in Las Vegas at the McCarran Airport hours ago and was quickly picked up by a waiting limousine and whisked away to the grand house where his #1 world-rated Rey "BoomBoom" Bautista and crew were waiting for the team leader.
Aldeguer, the son of Cebu's legendary boxing man Tony Aldeguer was reportedly contacted by American Boxing Academy owner Ken Smith upon his arrival in the gambling capital. Smith who is now in Washington preparing for his return to the Philippines for the Dec 20th WBO blockbuster event that ABA has slated featuring world rated Jr Featherweight Ramie Laput (34-3 18kos) along with #7 world rated Jr Middleweight Charles Whittaker.
Smith said "I just spoke with Michael and he is in Vegas now. I asked him for the Fuentes fight for Fernando Lumacad, and I even told him we would fight for the RP title for free, as Lumacad really just wants his deserved chance to be the RP champ of his country. Michael said he will check with his staff and Rocky and let my matchmaker know tomorrow if Rocky will accept Lumacads challenge."
Fuentes the long time RP flyweight champ would face in Lumacad his strongest challenge yet to the coveted crown. Lumacad (17-1-1 8kos) has been rated the #1 flyweight in the Philippines for several months now. Lumacad's most recent bout for the WBO Oriental Title ended in a 12-round draw.
