The Philippines No. 2 ranked super flyweight Daryl ?Flash? Basadre who scored a sensational 8th round knockout win over previously unbeaten Thai KO artist Yosindaeng Jor Chaijinda in Kanagawa, Japan to grab the vacant WBC Youth bantamweight crown, may defend his title in the Philippines.
Basadre?s manager Jim Claude Manangquil told the Manila Standard/Viva Sports he plans ?a first title defense early next year? but said the 22 year old fighter ?needs some rest? because he had trained hard for the title shot against the undefeated Thai.
Manangquil said Basadre was in command all throughout in what he described as ?the best performance of his career.?
Manangquil said his next opponent is also an undefeated Thai challenger whose name he couldn?t recall.
The win over Chaijinbda was the fifth this year for Basadre and took his record to 14-1-1 with 10 knockouts while Chaijinda fell to 6-1 with 4 knockouts.
The youthful manager who had earlier told us he expected Basadre (14-1-1, 10 KO?s) to win didn?t expect such a superb performance as Basadre dropped Chaijinda (6-1, 4 KO?s) three times en route to the 8th round knockout, making Basadre the first fighter to stop Chaijinda.
It was Basadre?s second visit to Japan having been previously hire as a sparring partner of former WBC light flyweight champion Naoya Inoue and ex-WBC flyweight king Akira Yaegashi from September to October this year.
