Expect bloodbath when the 'Double Trouble' fight card comes off the wraps in Dapitan City on July 25, featuring a 12-round Philippine lightweight title duel featuring Camiguin's Dexter Delada and Davao's Christopher Saluday.
The event is presented by Mr. Bullet Jalosjos, in coordination with Rex 'Wakee' Salud International, with the support of Gloria de Dapitan (c/o Cho Locop) , San Miguel Beer, Mayor Jun Jalosjos and Gov. Rolando Yebes.

Delada, who fights out of the Wakee Salud Stable, had previously vied for the title against then reigning champion Fernando Montilla, but was blown out in four rounds after knocking down Montilla in the third round.
The Cebu-based, Camiguin-raised fighter then traveled to South Africa last May 27 in search for the WBC International lightweight crown against Ali Funeka, only to lose on a second-round blow-out to the South African champ.
This time, Delada has vowed to win the title at all costs, with the title now vacant. Montilla was stripped of the RP 135-lb crown after seeing action in an unauthorized fight in Thailand, and the GAB decided to fill the void by putting the no. 1 Delada against the next available contender Saluday.
In the co-feature, Wyndel Janiola of the Wakee Salud Stable guns for the PBF junior flyweight title against Davao's Philip Parcon in a 10-round confrontation.
More exciting bouts are being lined up in the undercard, says matchmaker Manuel 'Willy' Flores.
