UNDEFEATED ?Magic? Mike Plania of General Santos City is now almost 100 percent ready to fight fellow unbeaten Lorence Rosas of Samar on April 30 in the main event of the Brawl at the Mall: Undefeated at the Makati Square Cinema in Makati City.
Plania and Rosas are fighting for the vacant World Boxing Federation (WBF) International bantamweight title.
?Plania is already 90 percent and is in great shape now,? said manager-promoter Jim Claude Manangquil, CEO of Sanman Promotions.
Plania has already sparred a total of 70 rounds and made 10 rounds of sparring last Friday at the Sanman Gym in Gensan with stablemate Rimar Metuda, who is also a southpaw like Rosas.
Plania, who has 9 straight wins with four knockouts and no loss or draw, is scheduled to fly to Manila on April 26 together with the other Sanman team.
The 19-year old Plania is fresh from a unanimous decision victory against veteran Rogen Flores last March 8 in T?boli, South Cotabato.
Plania is a former member of the Philippine national team. He represented the country in the 2014 AIBA World Youth Championships held in Ukraine and made it into the quarterfinals.
He is a three-time gold medalist in the Palarong Pambansa and 7-time champion in the National Games.
The Plania-Rosas championship fight will be the inaugural boxing show of Sanman Promotions in Manila. Plania also made his pro debut at the Makati Square Cinema on August 22, 2014 by scoring also a UD against Lordy Pateno. ? LITO DELOS REYES
