This coming Dec. 12 at the beautiful Solaire Resort and Casino, the Philippines will once again experience championship boxing at its finest. The hard work of two-time former world champion Gerry Penalosa who is teaming up with 8 time world champion Manny Pacquiao and young hot promoter Anson Tui Co to bring the Philippines more world class excitement with three tough Mexican fighters.
The main event is for the vacant IBF International Super Featherweight Championship pitting the tough Filipino fighter Michael ?Iron Hand? Farenas (36-4-28KO) against the pride of Guasave, Sinaloa, Mexico Jesus ?Chito? Rios (26-4-20KO).

Rios once held the WBA Fedcentro Title and has had two knockout victories this year. The tough hitting Rios (no relation to Brandon) has prepared hard for this fight.

The co main event features Filipino Richard ?The Beast? Pumicpic (13-5-4KO) vs former two time amateur champion from Mexico Luis Lugo (15-4-11KO). Pumicpic is the former WBC Youth Silver Bantamweight Champion and the Philippines Boxing Federation Bantamweight Champion.

The son of the legend, Dodie Boy Jr. (11-0-11KO) will face off against the tough kid from Los Mochis, Alem Robles (6-3-2KO). The young Robles, trains under the tough tutelage of head trainer Luis Gonzlaez at the LARAZA boxing gym.
