BANAL, ROCHMAD ARRIVE IN TAGBILARAN! WEIGH-IN SET TOMORROW
By Salven L. Lagumbay PhilBoxing.com Thu, 20 Jul 2006
The two undefeated fighters seeing action tomorrow in the main event of the 'Battle of the Undefeated' card arrived in Tagbilaran City yesterday on board Weesam Express, the official seacraft of the boxing event.
ALA Boy Alex John Banal and his opponent, Ali Rochmad of Surabaya, Indonesia, together with their teams and the undercard fighters were then ushered into a courtesy call on Tagbilaran City Mayor Dan Neri Lim in the afternoon.
Tomorrow, the official weigh-in for all the boxers takes place in Tagbilaran. The event will be telecast by VIVA SPORTS on its top-rated boxing show 'The Main Event' on July 23 at 1:00PM over RPN 9 sponsored by Tanduay, the no. 1 Rhum.
The stunningly attractive Viva Hotbabes member Rene Summer, the 2006 Tanduay Calendar Girl, and Louis Anderson will act as ringcard girls.
As an added attraction, the popular young boxing phenom Rey 'Boom Boom' Bautista will see action in a three-round exhibition bout with journeyman Edwin Gastador. This will be Bautista's first ring appearance since his aborted July 2 fight with Alejandro Felix Montiel in the Pacquiao-Larios card.
A special attraction bout will feature Hawaiian-based boxer, Van Oscar Penovaroff, on his second professional outing against Fernando Otik of Mandaue City following his win last July 15 in Manila.
Supporting card will include young prospects from the ALA Stable: Along Denoy, Robert Allanic, and Rey Caitom against Alex Guevarra, Danilo Pe?a and Ruel Lagonero respectively. Former Philippine Olympic team members Franklin Albia, Mark Jason Melliguen and Lito Jalnaiz will trade mitts with their counterparts from Manila and Mindanao.
Other Bohol boxers who will showcase their skills includes Arnel Tadena against Surigao City?s Rodel Lamela, Leon Maratas against Esmael Mala and Ricky Sismundo against Jun Morano.
