Featherweight prospect John Vincent ?Mulawin? Moralde of Davao City will be in the main supporting bout of "Brawl at the Mall: Undefeated" on April 30 at the Makati Square Cinema in Makati City. The 21 year old Moralde (15W-0L-0D-7KOs), who is the current World Boxing Federation (WBF) International featherweight champion, will fight Jimmy ?Xcon Tirador? Aducal of Samar in a ten round non-title contest.

Aducal (8W-5L-2D-6 KOs), is a 25-year old southpaw who figths out of Xcon Stable in Mandaluyong City. Moralde has won three straight fights since the tragic bout with Australian Brayd Smith, who died two days after losing consciousness after their ten round WBC-ABC continental featherweight title bout.

In an e-mail message to philboxing, Promoter Jim Claude Manangquil, Chief Executive Officer of the Sanman Promotions said, "We want to keep John Vincent active to prepare him for bigger fights this year.This would be another strong challenge for him since Aducal is not a push over and he is a quality opponent,?

?I have trained hard for this fight. I respect my opponent as a fighter but i will be victorious come April 30,? Moralde stated ?If there is an opportunity for a knockout I will do it,?

The main event of Sanman Promotions' first Brawl at the Mall event in Metro Manila is the championship match for the vacant WBF International bantamweight crown between two undefeated fighters ?Magic? Mike Plania (9W-0L-0D-4KOs) of General Santos City and Lorence Rosas of Puerto Princesa (5W-0L-2D-2KOs).

Plania, a former national team member, is coming off a unanimous points win against veteran Rogen Flores last March. Rosas also got a unanimous nod in his last fight against Pablito Canada.

Admission is free to the public.
