Valero knocks out foe in Champions of the Future boxing card
Cebu Daily NewsGERPAUL Valero overpowered Jonathan Ricablanca via fourth-round knockout last Saturday in the Champions of the Future fight card at the Panphil B. Frasco Memorial Sports Complex in Liloan town, northern Cebu.
Valero used a variety of combinations to the body and head to pick apart Jonathan Ricablanca and unleashed a hard right uppercut to the body in the fourth, sending Ricablanca crashing to the canvas.
Referee Teddy Alivio reached the count of ten at the 53-second mark.
Rajah Renoel Pael beat a game and rugged Ryan Bongcawil by unanimous decision in another bout.
Pael dictated the tempo with his crisp left jab and one-two combos to neutralize Bongcawil’s swarming offense. The scores read 97-93, 96-94 and 96-94.
Jayson Redondo Singwangcha used a right hook to send Elmer Colve down for the count in round two. Referee Tony Pesons signaled the end at the 45 second mark.

It was sweet revenge for Rodel Wenceslao as he stopped Sesustener Llanera Singwangcha in the seventh round. Wenceslao was wary of Llanera’s power in the early rounds and was content to box from a distance.
