Victorias, Negros Occidental -- This remote city in the island of Negros about 30 kilometers from the main city of Bacolod is alive and rocking as the WBO Asia-Pacific minimumweight championship will explode in the next couple of hours.
Local boy Donnie Neites will defend his title against visiting Thai Thongthailek Por Vorasing inside the newly built 10,000-capacity Victorias gym while another Negrense Mark Jason Milleguen will go up against Christopher Saluday of Davao City for the RP super lightweight title.
