REIGNING Philippine super flyweight champion Marco Demecillo Singwangcha will battle Jessie Tuyor in a ten-round, non-title bout on Dec. 2 at the Mandaue City Sports and Cultural Complex in a fight card billed as Fighters of the Future.
The unbeaten Demecillo (17W-0L-1D, 13 KOs) hails from Iligan City and fights out of RWS Gym of Labangon, Cebu City. He is one of the top Filipino boxers sponsored by boxing patron Naris Singwangcha of Thailand.
In his last fight, Demecillo won by 4th round TKO against Marjun Tabamo at the MSU IIT Gym in Iligan City.
Tuyor (6W-7L-2D, 3 KOs), who hails from Dipolog City, will try to bounce back from a decision loss in Thailand against Petch Sor Chitpatana and an 8th round stoppage loss to world ranked Mark Anthony Geraldo.
Also set to see action is Gerpaul Valero of the Flores Boxing Stable of Mandaue City who will fight against Ronnie Sunido of Zamboanga City. Last September, Valero scored a stunning first round TKO win against ALA gym boxer Marjun Macahilig in Balamban, Cebu.
Meanwhile, there will be six more bouts on the undercards in the boxing promotion presented by Naris and RWS Promotions with the support of Rep. Luigi Quisumbing and Mandaue City local government officials. /Correspondent Rene Bonsubre Jr.
