 Pastor Quiboloy.
PNA -- With his P3-billion coliseum under construction, the founder of the religious group ?Kingdom of Jesus Christ? ventured into sports establishing Sonshine Sports Management to initially support six boxing talents, mostly trained from North Cotabato.
Recently, Pastor Apollo Quiboloy signed a co-management with promotional rights agreement for professional boxers Edrin Dapudong, Lorenzo Villanueva, Rolando Magbanua, Rommel Asenjo, Roskie Cristobal, John Michael Sarguilla with former North Cotabato governor Emmanuel Pinol as their manager.
Under the management contract, Pinol will handle the day -to-day affairs of the boxers and their training. Quiboloy as the co-manager and promoter through Sonshine Sports Management, will actively promote professional boxing events
Quiboloy said his interest to establish the Sonshine Sports Management stemmed from his desire to support Filipinos who have shown talents in sports but lack the necessary support in physical conditioning and training to compete nationally and internationally.
He said Sonshine will not only support boxers but other athletes in other fields. He added he wants to develop talents of those who have strong potentials in their own fields.
With Pinol taking the lead in developing sports activities, Quiboloy said he will just provide the backbone of the sports industry.
Quiboloy, who is currently building a P3 billion world-class coliseum for hosting various international and local events, is also building a gym where athletes and residents can practice, train or play.
Pinol said the coliseum is touted to be world-class building complete with amenities, including 26 fixed cameras.
According to Pinol, the coliseum is not only for exclusive use of the Quiboloy?s ministry.
He said these developments will make Davao City as the center of sports in the country. [PNA]
