The comeback fight of young and promising 24 year Rene Dacquel who earlier lost his WBC Youth World super flyweight title to Jhalel Payao last December will be featured on ?The Main Event? over Pinoy Box Office (PBO) on Sky Cable on Saturday at 8:30 p.m. with a replay on Sunday at 10:30 a.m.

Dacquel lost his title against tough Payao a product of the Omega Gym in Cebu in a good fight in Paranaque and was determined to come back from that loss.

In a rematch with rugged Menard Abila whom he beat in Taal, Batangas last October by an 8th round TKO, Dacquel showed grim determination to get back on the winning track against the resilient Abila who was ready to give him the fight of his life.
Dacquel, showing excellent hand-speed and solid punching power scored a repeat TKO victory in an exciting bout at the Mandaluyong City Gym.

The Dacquel-Abila showdown plus highlights of his first fight as well as the Payao bout will also be included on the top rated Viva Sports weekly boxing show.
