Magramo.
The fifth in the exciting Magramo boxing clan, undefeated 21 year old Giemel Magramo seeks to follow in the footsteps of his father Melvin Magramo, popular uncle Ronnie ?The Toy Bulldog?, Ric and Alvin when he battles Jeny Buca for the vacant WBC International flyweight title at the Flash Elorde Grand Ballroom on Saturday.
Giemel has a record of 14-0 with 11 knockouts and is coming off a 4th round TKO victory over journeyman Roilo Golez last September 12.
Magramo, a stylish fighter with a powerful right hand is not expected to have an easy time against Buca. The 21 year old with a record of 10 knockouts in 10 wins with 2 defeats.
Buca is coming off a 2nd round knockout win over Michael Padayag in a six round bout last September 26 after he was forced to retire with a broken nose in a title fight against Ardin Diale who recently won the OPBF title.
Also seeing action on the card will be two grandsons of the late world junior lightweight champion Gabriel ?Flash? Elorde ? 31 year old Juan Martin ?Bai? Elorde who faces Indonesia?s Master Suro in a ten round lightweight showdown while 29 year old super bantamweight Juan Miguel Elorde clashes with another Indonesian Rasamuddin, also in a ten round bout at 123 pounds.
?Bai? Elorde is a southpaw with a record of 18-1-1 with 8 knockouts and is the current WBO Asia Pacific super featherweight champion having won the title in March 2013. He is coming off a 6th round TKO of Yakobus Heluka last September 12.
Elorde?s opponent Master Suro is far less experienced than ?Bai? Elorde and has a record of 3-3-2 with 1 knockout. He won an 8th round unanimous decision over Yacob Ton also of Indonesia last June 9.
Juan Miguel Elorde (19-1, 10 KO?s) is the current WBO Asia Pacific super bantamweight champion should have no problem warding off the challenge of Indonesia?s Rasmanudin who has a record of 19-12-3 with 10 knockouts and has lost his last four fights including a 2nd round knockout at the hands of Roli Gasca of the famed Ala Gym.
Elorde won the WBO Asia Pacific 122 pound title with a ten round unanimous decision over Tabthong Tor Buamas last March 25.
