Jaca is GAB Boxer of the Month
By Salven L. Lagumbay PhilBoxing.com Mon, 19 Mar 2007
Jimrex 'The Executioner' Jaca of the Wakee Salud Stable, the newly-crowned WBO Asia-Pacific super-featherweight champ, has been chosen by the Games and Amusements Board as its Boxer of the Month in its latest ratings.
Jaca was chosen owing to his seventh-round demolition of Indonesia's Simson Butar-Butar, a victory that would possibly line the Filipino for yet another big fight in the United States.
Undefeated Rey 'Boom Boom' Bautista was runner-up with his third-round knockout victory over Mexican Marino Gonzalez to win the WBO Intercon and Youth superbantam titles.
Four ALA Boys occupy no. 1 spots in the latest rankings, with Donnie Nietes on top of the minifly division, Rocky Fuentes for the flyweight category, Alex John Banal for the superfly class and Mark Jason Melligen for the junior welterweight limit.
