ALL SET FOR “HAMON SA KAMPEON”: AN EXPLOSIVE FRIDAY NIGHT AT THE WATERFRONT By Rene Bonsubre, Jr. PhilBoxing.com Fri, 16 Oct 2009  The boxers for the much anticipated “HAMON SA KAMPEON” fight card easily made weight during the official weigh-in Thursday morning at the SM Cebu City Entertainment Center. Rey “Boom Boom” Bautista and Marangin “Dinamita” Marbun of Indonesia will clash in the main event, a twelve round battle for the interim WBC International featherweight title. Both fighters promised that the outcome of the fight will not be left to the judges’ scorecards. Czar Amonsot will face Thailand’s Black Tiger, Jesus Muzaka Singwancha, in a ten round non-title lightweight contest. This bout between two hard punchers not only promises to steal the thunder away from the main event but will also decide which boxer has the best hairstyle in Southeast Asia. Marjun Yap of Cagayan de Oro will face Thailand’s Pramuansak Posuwan Kokietgym. Posuwan once lost a twelve round bout with Puerto Rico’s Jose Lopez for the vacant WBO world superflyweight title. This is the same Lopez that lost his WBO crown to Marvin Sonsona last September. Jason Pagara, the Philippine lightweight champion, will face Decha Bankluaygym of Thailand. Pagara has beaten two Indonesian boxers this year, Hero Katili by 3rd round TKO and Simson Butar-butar by 10 round decision. The boxers for the four other supporting bouts also made weight : lt.flyweights Marjohn Macahilig vs Roque Lauro 6 rounds, lt. flyweights Jomar Cordinillo vs Fernando Okon 6 rounds, jr.featherweights Romnick Hoybia vs Edison Berwela 4 rounds, Jefferson Reodeque vs JR Salvador 4 rounds.
