Boxing fans in Dubai where there was a turn-away crowd the last tine ALA Promotions and ABS-CBN staged a ?Pinoy Pide? Fight card are in for a even bigger treat when ?Pinoy Pride XXXII? invades Dubai once again on August 7 in a fight card that will surely provide fireworks when hard-hitting southpaw Jinrex Jaca battles Mexican knockout artist Pablo Lugo Montiel.

The 24 year old Montiel is a typical Mexican warrior whose record of 17 knockouts in 21 wins with 5 losses speaks for itself.

Montiel won the inaugural WBO Mexican lightweight title fight with a 9th round TKO over game Noe Morales on July 24, 2010.
Then on May 14, 2011 he scored a 1st round knockout victory over Jonas Olivas before he lost to talented Pablo Cesar Cano by a 7th round TKO in a clash for the vacant ABA-NABA Mexico lightweight title pn June 25, 2011.

On December 19, 2014 Montiel knocked out Jesus Camacho in the third round that set the stage for his showdown with Jaca.
The 32 year old Jaca has a record of 39-8-4 with 22 knockouts but is coming off a 4th round TKO loss o Japan?s tough Akihiro Kondo in Tokyo on March 16 his year.

Prior to that fight Jaca figured in a 3rd round technical decision against Masayoshi Kotake in Cebu when Jaca suffered a nasty cut above his right eye although he dropped Kotake in the opening round.

A fighter in every sense of the word, Jaca will either knock his opponent out or out or get knocked out himself but fans can be assured of an action-packed fight which has made the Filipino southpaw a crowd favorite.

2013 was a good year for Jaca who won the vacant WBO Oriental super lightweight title with a twelve round unanimous decision over Jose Emilio Perea on May 25 and followed it up with a 1st round knockout of Wellem Reyk on November 30.
