YOUNG up-and-comer Carlo Demecillo is in for a crucial fight with Margarito Moya tomorrow night, as a win could move him up to the next level.
?His training went well, he?s ready. This will be a very good fight because Moya is quick and is a very good fighter. They also have the same experience,? Big Yellow Boxing Gym head trainer Christopher ?Ping-Ping? Tepora told SunStar Cebu.
Demecillo and Moya are fighting for the vacant Visproba bantamweight belt in the main event of ?Bakbakan sa Catmon 2? at the Catmon Sports Complex.
The 21-year-old Demecillo will earn a regional title shot if he wins impressively against Moya, who?s no pushover.
?We?ll be waiting for the decision of our manager (Seth Oliver Tio). Maybe Carlo will be given a regional title fight,? said Tepora. ?For me, Carlo is ready for a regional title fight. This will be his real test.?
Demecillo is on a hot streak, winning all three of his fights last year, with his latest being a fourth-round knockout of promising prospect Jay-Ar Aliasot from a dislocated shoulder.
The 22-year-old Moya is eager to bounce back after suffering back-to-back knockout defeats to Jess Rhey Waminal and Junrel Jimenez.
Cris Ganoza (14-1, 8 KOs) faces off with experienced Sherwin Lungay (8-41-2) in the main supporting bout.
In the undercard, knockout artist Raymond Yanong (8-3-1, 7 KOs) slugs it out with Eddie Estibat (3-5, 3 KOs), undefeated Allan Villanueva (7-0, 6 KOs) locks horns with Jason Tinampay (8-7-1, 7 KOs), Audie Dacua (1-0, 1 KO) is up against Rolien Getalada (0-4-1).
