MEXICAN boxers Miguel Angel Mendoza and Marcos Cardenas gave boxing fans a glimpse of what to expect this Saturday in a public workout yesterday afternoon at the Events Center of SM Cebu.

Cardenas and Mendoza took turns shadow boxing on stage in front of an appreciative crowd. Providing added entertainment were the dance numbers provided by the sexy KO girls. Fans also got a chance to win free tickets during the Q and A portion of the event.

The two boxers also gamely posed for pictures with the fans after their workout.
