Ardin ?The Jackal? Diale captured the Oriental and Pacific Boxing Federation title in his second attempt when he scored a unanimous twelve round decision over countryman Renoel ?Singwancha? Pael at the Highway Hills Integrated School Gymnasium in Mandaluyong City which is a hotbed of boxing in Metro Manila on Wednesday.
With the win the 27 year old Diale who was ranked No. 1 by the OPBF improved his record to 30-9-3 with 15 knockouts. He was coming off a win over Indonesia?s tough Heri Amol who retired in the 6th round last July 11.
It was Diale?s seventh win in a row after he lost his first crack at the vacant OPBF title by an 8th round knockout to Japan?s Koki Eto at the famed Korakuen Hall in Tokyo last June 17, 2014.
Ito who relinquished the title and moved up to super flyweight lost by a twelve round unanimous decision to WBC world champion Carlos Cuadras of Mexico kast Saturday in Tokyo.
Diale who trained hard and looked impressive in his six fight winning streak and was slightly favored over the 25 year old Renoel ?Singwancha? Pael whose loss saw his record drop to 19-2-1 with 9 knockouts.
Pael who was ranked No. 5 by the OPBF was coming off an impressive 3rd round knockout over Renante Suacasa in a scheduled ten round bout last July 14.
However, Asian Fight Scene reported that Pael?s best showing was against the heavy handed Japanese Yuki Onaha which was not even close, with Pael putting on a master-class against a man who looked out of his depth. In August last year.
The internet site suggested that fight fans keep an eye on Pael who lost a hometown decision to Noknoi Sithpraesert in a WBC International Silver title fight in Thailand on February 28, 2014.
Diale set the pace for the fight and basically controlled the tempo from the opening round against the tough Pael with all three judges scoring the fight for for Diale by comfortable margins.
Veteran referee/judge Silvester Abainza had Diale the winner 117-110, Nowel Haduca also scored the fight for Diale 115-112 but Engineer Greg Ortega had it much closer at 114-113 for Diale.
