PhilBoxing.com




WBO Minimum Weight World Champion and Bacolod City hero Donnie "Ahas" Nietes is scheduled to arrive Bacolod City Friday April 1, 2011 to do his final preparations for his scheduled homecoming fight dubbed PINOY PRIDE 5: BATTLE OF CHAMPIONS 3 PM Saturday, April 9, 2011 at the St. La Salle Coliseum.

The Filipino world champ Nietes will be fighting for the first time at the Junior Flyweight division where he aims to be a two division world champion. He will be facing a very tough opponent in Mexican Armando Vasquez, a typical Mexican fighter with an aggressive style that never backs down from wild exchanges.

A win for the "AHAS" would mean a whole lot for he will be challenging the winner of the title fight between Colombian Jesus Gelez and Mexican Ramoncito Garcia dated April 30, 2011 in Mexico.

Nietes will be coming in from Cebu City where he is based now and will be joined by fellow ALA Promotions fighters WBO Youth Junior Welterweight Champion and 19 year old phenom Jason Pagara and PABA Bantamweight Super Champ Roli Gasca who likewise will be featured during the PINOY PRIDE 5 event.

It is going to be one energy filled afternoon of boxing as Negrenses will be treated to world class boxing match-ups that would feature four foreign fighters and two regional championships in one event.

Besides the Mexican Vasquez, three other foreign pugilists will be featured in African Deo Njiku who will be challenging for Pagaras WBO Youth title, James Mokoginto of Indonesia to brawl for Lorenzo Villanueva's WBO Oriental belt and as an added attraction, PABA Super Champ Roli gasca will duke it out with Ngaotawang Sithsaithong of Thailand.

PINOY PRIDE 5: BATTLE OF CHAMPIONS is a proud presentation of ALA Promotions and ABS-CBN Sports and supported by the Bacolod City and Negros Oriental Provincial Governments. This is also brought to you by SM City Bacolod, Diamond Suites and Residences Cebu, Palmas del Mar Resort, Mooon Cafe, Thirsty Juices and Shakes, The Bacolod Pavillion Hotel Resort and Restaurant, Bob's Cafe, Merci Pasalubong, Sheridan and Mang Inasal.
