Filipino super featherweight Rogelio Jun Doliguez battles former world champion Fernando ?Cochulito? MOntiel in a ten round bout in Tijuana, Mexico on Sunday, Manila Time.
The 23 year old Doliguez has a record of 19-2-2 with 14 knockouts but has failed to live up to his early promise and has lost two of his last three fights.
He dropped a unanimous decision over six rounds to Gabriel Francisco Pina who had a poor record of 10-11-5 with 4 knockouts and avenged that defeat with an 8th round unanimous decision victory last May 23, 2014.
However in his last fight Doliguez lost by a 5th round majority technical decision to Denis Tuberon when their heads clashed for a secomd time forcing the stoppage after Doliguez bled profusely from the cut.
Montiel on the other hand suffered a bad beating in a WBO super bantamweight title fight on February 19, 2011, losing by a 2nd round TKO to Nonito ?The Filipino Flash? Donaire on Febriary 19, 2011.
Montiel?s only other loss being against Victor Terrazas in a clash for the vacant WBC Silver title on November 19, 2011.
Since the Terrazas loss, Montiel has won seven fights in a row as a super featherweight and hopes to continue his comeback with a win over Doliguez.
